QuestionView source ↗

I refer to your Ministerial statement on the Kimberley Action Response where you say that, ‘The State Government has been working with the Kimberley Aboriginal Medical Services Council to develop a suite of community action plans in conjunction with the Commonwealth-funded StandBy program, which is coordinated through KinWay. This community-based program provides a 24-hour-a-day response to assist families, friends and acquaintances who have been bereaved through suicide’, and I ask -
(1) How long has the State Government been working with the Kimberley Aboriginal Medical Services Council to develop a suite of community action plans?
(2) How many actions plans have been produced so far?
(3) How many action plans will there be in total?
(4) Will the Minister table the action plans which have been finalised so far?
(5) If no to (4), why not?
