I can reassure the house that the
processes are already in place in the towns where we have announced Target 120
will be rolled out. Members should know that in Carnarvon a community youth
officer is already in place, working with
agencies and identifying applicants who will be part of the program. Work is
already progressing in Carnarvon , as it is in the other towns where
Target 120 is being rolled out. When we have the service provider that is right
and we transition to that service provider, which will be best placed locally
to work with those kids and have their trust, the initial work has already been
done through the community youth officer.
