Liquor Thefts

The Hon. H.M. GIROLAMO (Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:40): Supplementary: what is the Attorney-General planning to do, then, to address the increases in reoffending of offenders who are often on bail?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector, Special Minister of State) (14:40): I will have to take that on notice, but I will have a look to see if what is being asked in that question is, in fact, factually correct. I think South Australia has had, and I am not sure if the latest Report on Government Services figures have been released, but I think they may have in relation to recidivism, and, if I am remembering correctly, South Australia—if not the lowest—was certainly at the low end of reoffending in Australia.

Members interjecting:

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: As I have said, I am not aware of statistics that break it down into bottle shops, but if the honourable member has a large suite of statistics that indicate this and has the evidence for it I would be very happy to have a look at it.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! Attorney, you had your chance while you were on your feet. The Hon. Mr Hunter, and everybody on the opposition bench, order! The Hon. Mr Hanson has the call.
