GUARDIANSHIP AND ADMINISTRATION ACT — STATUTORY
REVIEW
1216. Hon NICK GOIRAN to the parliamentary secretary
representing the Attorney General:
I refer to the answers to my
questions without notice 520 and 605 last year regarding the review of part 9E
of the Guardianship and Administration Act 1990.
(1) Does the
Attorney General recall informing the house that a report on this review is to
be tabled by no later than 7 April 2022?
(2) Will the Attorney General table the most recent
briefing note or similar document he has received regarding this review
and its report?
(3) If no to (2), why not?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member for some notice
of the question. The following answer is based on information provided to me by
the Attorney General.
(1)–(3) In
2021, in accordance with the governance requirements of its evaluation and
review steering committee, the Department of Justice established a project
reference group to facilitate and guide the review of the amendment act and
prepare the report on the review. The PRG prepared a discussion paper for
distribution to stakeholders and consulted widely during the review.
Stakeholder views were collated and analysed to inform the PRG's findings
and recommendations in relation to the amendment act, which will be included in
the final report. I table a copy of this discussion paper, and note that the
final report will be tabled as soon as practicable.
