Coronavirus, Hotel Accommodation

The Hon. I. PNEVMATIKOS (17:04): I initially, in my two questions, asked about what defined misbehaving.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (17:04): What I was referring to was the antisocial behaviour policy, which is a matter of the public record. In terms of the hotel accommodation, there were similar standards that were applied, but ultimately some of the proprietors of those hotels were able to make those decisions themselves. However, I can assure the honourable member that we gave as much support as we were humanly able to possibly provide to all of the people who came through the program. It has been a huge collective effort from the non-government providers as well as the government to try to assist people through this challenging time.
