699. Hon PETER COLLIER to the minister representing the
Minister for Police:
I refer the minister to his response
to question without notice 692 in relation to the critical incident response
crisis support service asked on Thursday, 9 September. In particular, I refer
to the fact that over $700 000 was spent in 2018,
$1.3 million in 2019 and $1.4 million in 2020. Given that the total composition
of staff for the critical incident response crisis support service is an
on-call psychologist and an on-call chaplain, what else is included in the
funds allocated for this service?
