Smith, Ms A.M.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (15:15): Supplementary.

The PRESIDENT: Interesting.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: Minister, have you asked any or all of your ministerial colleagues if they knew before you found out?

The PRESIDENT: I'm not sure that's actually a different question from the first one, is it? You can answer it if you wish, but I thought it would be very hard to get a supplementary question out of the first answer given.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (15:16): I have made a range of inquiries both through the organisations that I am aware had known about this case and have had a number of discussions with a number of my colleagues. We have been trying to assimilate the facts about who knew what and when, and that's been very important, I think, in terms of providing as much information as we can to the authorities so that they can undertake their investigations.
