❓ Hon. George Cash asks the Attorney General about actions taken in 2002 and 2003. The response indicates that some agencies (Office of the Information Commissioner, Law Reform Commission) did not undertake the specified actions, while others (Department of Justice, Equal Opportunity Commission, Legal Aid WA, State Solicitor's Office) did, but providing details would be an unreasonable use of resources and potentially prejudice ongoing matters.
