Pearce, Ms D.A.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:40): Supplementary arising from the answer: minister, was the statement that your office purported to release from the deceased woman's family last night released with the knowledge and approval of the family, and did it represent their views?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:40): That is my understanding, that the department had spoken to the family and that they were happy with those comments.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The Hon. Ms Lee.
