APY LANDS

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (14:45): I have a supplementary question arising out of the minister's answer. If that is the minister's position has he responded in those terms to Mr Pompey, to the letter that he received in April of this year and, if he has not, why has he not responded in those terms to Mr Pompey?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (14:45): I have every confidence in the 70 Communities and Social Inclusion staff who work on the APY lands in providing many of the important services to those remote communities and, working in close contact with the community authorities, they will continue to do so.
