YOUTH SUICIDE — UNIT 18, CASUARINA PRISON
184. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Minister for Corrective Services:
That is a very quick answer from the
minister, so I have a supplementary question. It is clear that the culture in
unit 18 is spiralling out of control. When will the minister take action to
correct this toxic culture?
The SPEAKER : Minister, you
can respond.

Thank you, Speaker.
Leader of the Opposition, that is an
extraordinary link from referring to a couple of unsubstantiated third-party
hearsay allegations that have been reported in one media outlet to a claim
about unit 18 and some ongoing problem with culture. I would suggest to the
Leader of the Opposition that he should refrain from inserting himself into
criticism of people based on hearsay allegations that have not yet been
investigated. All allegations of the type to which the member refers are
referred and will be investigated in the normal course of events.
