Pearce, Ms D.A.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:38): My question is to the Minister for Human Services regarding disability services. Minister, is it totally unacceptable to issue statements from a deceased woman's family that misrepresents their views and is released without their knowledge or approval?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:39): I reject those statements. Can I also state for the record that my department has looked into the matters that were raised by the Leader of the Opposition, which have been published by the member for Hurtle Vale, and a number of those elements we would say are not factually correct.

Once again, the Labor Party comes in here misrepresenting things. We know that the deputy leader fabricated 90 per cent of an entire story in here last year, and it is unfortunately a very poor practice of the Labor Party to come in here misrepresenting comments and then promulgating them throughout the media.
