Prisoner Support and Treatment

The Hon. S.G. WADE (15:03): Supplementary: could I ask that the minister reflect on that as well? It may well be that his department might be able to tell us what the dynamics are. I appreciate that it is a legal matter, but in terms of practice it might well be that there is consultation with the minister's sentencing unit, or whatever it is.

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:03): That is a reasonable ask; I will make those inquires. I would have a degree of confidence that that may be the case, but rather than me answer on a whim, let me take that on notice and I can come back with some more specific information.
