WAYNE VALENTA — RESOCIALISATION PROGRAM
1126. Hon NICK GOIRAN to the parliamentary secretary
representing the Attorney General:
I refer to the response to my
question without notice asked on 9 November 2021 in which the Attorney General
acknowledged that he was aware of opposition to the recommendation that Wayne
Valenta be approved for a resocialisation program, given his violent murder of
Deborah Boyd after hiding under her 15-year-old daughter's bed for
three hours.
(1) What decision did the Attorney General
make?
(2) When was it made?
(3) Will the
parliamentary secretary table the most recent briefing note or similar document
that the Attorney General has received about Mr Valenta in either an unredacted
or redacted form?
(4) If no to (3), will he undertake
to comply with section 82 of the Financial Management Act 2006?

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
It
is not possible to provide the member with a response within the time available
and I ask that he place this question on notice.
