Mr Speaker - Dr G.I. Gallop: Deputy leader of the opposition! Mr C.J. Barnett: Are you going to rule on that one, Mr Speaker? Mr M.W. TRENORDEN: My question is actually to you, Premier. Dr G.I. Gallop: Thanks, deputy leader! Mr M.W. TRENORDEN: That is all right, deputy Premier! I remind the Premier of the much-repeated promise that a Gallop Labor Government would aim for the highest standards of openness and accountability in government. Given the unprecedented nature of Thursday’s mass escape from the Supreme Court, the complete failure of the minister to take responsibility and the growing public concern about the fiasco, will the Premier now agree to provide all documents relating to this matter, including - (a) the correspondence from AIMS Corporation Pty Ltd to the Department of Justice relating to court security and the custodial arrangements for high-security prisoners; (b) minutes of meetings between AIMS and the Department of Justice relating to the same; and (c) department budget submissions on court security? Dr G.I. GALLOP

On the last point, we have already indicated our position to the people of Western Australia. Mr M.W. Trenorden: Put it on the table. Dr G.I. GALLOP: Our position is that more than $100 million will be spent on a new court complex. In the interim, before it is completed, we will spend $4.2 million on the Supreme Court. That is, therefore, a matter of public knowledge. I contrast that with the lack of decision from 1993 to 2001 when the Liberals were in power. If there are any questions on openness and accountability that the deputy leader of the opposition wants to raise, he should raise them in this Parliament and we will be only too happy to answer them.
