COMMUNITIES — POLICE RAID
201. Hon PETER COLLIER to
the minister representing the Minister for Community Services:
I refer the minister to the raid by
the Western Australia Police Force on the home of a female Aboriginal public
officer employed at the Department of Communities and to the response to
question without notice 184 asked on Thursday, 17 March 2022.
(1) Has this
female Aboriginal public officer lodged a bullying complaint against the
director general of the Department of Communities, Michael Rowe, to either the
deputy director general or any other public officer employed within the
Department of Communities since 1 January 2022?
(2) If yes, on
what date was the complaint lodged?
Hon SUE
ELLERY replied:
I thank the honourable member for some
notice of the question.
(1)–(2) The
minister has been advised that the Public Sector Commission received a formal
complaint of bullying involving the director general of the Department of
Communities, Michael Rowe. It is not appropriate to identify the complainant.
