(a)-(c) Material prepared for the roundtable discussion comprises documents which were prepared for the Attorney General’s ultimate discussion with cabinet ministers. These discussions are yet to take place and the Attorney General is not in a position to disclose material which would form the basis of a submission to cabinet ministers. Once cabinet ministers have considered and made a decision, the Attorney General will make public the McGowan Government’s response to the issues considered at the roundtable meeting.
