Sentencing for Violent Offenders

The Hon. D.G.E. HOOD (15:13): Supplementary: thank you, Attorney, for the answer. Would the Attorney undertake to look at this matter and familiarise himself with the details in order to make a better assessment?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:13): What I am happy to do and what I might do in this instance is forward on the Hansard to the Director of Public Prosecutions. It would be a highly unusual thing for me to instruct or seek that something be lodged, but it wouldn't be unusual for members of the community, victims' families or others to put forward views, and I will certainly be happy to forward the Hansard of the honourable member's question for the independent Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions to have a look at and take into account what has been said here today.
