Spit Hoods

The Hon. C. BONAROS (14:39): Supplementary: given that we did pass that very good piece of legislation in this state and it has previously been on that agenda, is the Attorney committed to ensuring that there are no backward steps in South Australia in terms of revisiting the issue of spit hoods in youth or adult detention settings?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector, Special Minister of State) (14:40): Certainly, we have no intention to wind back that legislation in South Australia.
