Mr MILLS - 2007-10-10
As Chief Minister, have you personally taken any action, given any instructions to any department to establish any form of investigation to discover if there are more victims of Bob Collins so that help can be offered to those victims if needed?
ANSWER
Madam Speaker, I could go through what I said in previous answers about where we are legally and what I said about those alleged victims being able to seek assistance through the Witness Assistance Service and the range of services they provide. That is something the Attorney-General has carriage of. I encourage any alleged victim to pursue that course of action, which is quite appropriate. It is part of the services we offer in the Territory. That quite definitively answers the Deputy Opposition Leader’s question.
