Ministerial Statement

Principal Community Visitor

The Hon. K.A. HILDYARD (Reynell—Minister for Disabilities, Minister Assisting the Minister for Recreation and Sport) (14:02): I seek leave to make a ministerial statement.

Leave granted.

The Hon. K.A. HILDYARD: In relation to questions I took on notice yesterday, I maintain an ongoing engagement with the Principal Community Visitor. I received the community visitor's annual report on 29 September within the required time frame. I read it prior to my most recent meeting with Mr Maurice Corcoran on 23 October at which the report was also discussed. I look forward to continuing to work with Mr Maurice Corcoran and, most importantly, with the volunteers who give their time and skills every day to make sure our Community Visitor Scheme is strong and effective—

Mr PISONI: Point of order, Mr Speaker: there is no written document.

The SPEAKER: That is a fair point of order. It is on its way, member for Unley. A good and fair point of order.

Mr Pengilly interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Yes, as the member for Finniss says, perhaps the member for Unley has turned over a new leaf. The minister.

The Hon. K.A. HILDYARD: I look forward to continuing to work with Mr Maurice Corcoran and, most importantly, with the volunteers who give their time and skills every day to make sure our Community Visitor Scheme is strong and effective and to make sure people have the support they need.
