COMMUNITIES —
POLICE RAID
390. Hon PETER COLLIER to
the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Community Services:
I refer the minister to her
response to question on notice 680 answered on 10 May 2022.
(1) Why is it ''not appropriate to respond to
the questions as to whether any specific criminal conduct was allegedly
committed by persons referred to in the members questions'' when the
minister and Premier have stated publicly and in the Parliament that the female
Aboriginal officer employed within the Department of Communities whose home was
raided by police was being investigated for possible criminal activity?
(2) Of the eight
people being investigated, was the Aboriginal female officer the only one being
investigated for possible criminal activity?
Hon SUE
ELLERY replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1)–(2) Matters
relating to allegations of criminal conduct and related investigations are
appropriately directed to the WA Police Force.
