Correctional Services Monitoring Device Outage

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (13:19): My question is to the Minister for Correctional Services. Has the minister inquired as to how many people are being monitored via electronic monitoring under section 66N(9) of the Child Sex Offenders Registration Act?

The Hon. C.L. WINGARD (Gibson—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (13:19): Thank you, again. No, I don't get an update every day on which prisoners are being monitored—

The Hon. C.L. WINGARD: —for what offences but, if the Leader of the Opposition is asking that question, I am happy to inquire for him and get him back an exact number.
