PRISON — CRITICAL INCIDENT REVIEW —MINISTER FOR CORRECTIVE SERVICES
998. Mr Z.R.F. KIRKUP to the Minister for Corrective

Following that line of argument, why
did the member for Warren–Blackwood not stand down over and again
during the riots at Banksia Hill Detention Centre?
Mr D.T. Redman interjected.
The SPEAKER : Member for
Warren–Blackwood!
Mr F.M. LOGAN : Compare the
cost of this riot—$2.4 million, which we picked up through insurance—with
the damage from the incidents and injuries to the staff at Banksia Hill and ask
the member for Warren–Blackwood why he did not resign.
