CORRECTIONAL FACILITY
Discussion Paper

MR HUMPHRIES (Attorney-General) (3.25): Mr Speaker, for the information of members, I present a discussion paper entitled "The possible establishment of a correctional facility in the Australian Capital Territory". I move:

That the Assembly takes note of the paper.

I have presented a discussion paper on the possible establishment of a correctional facility in the ACT. This long-awaited paper is for the information of members and, more importantly perhaps, for the wider community, in order to have a full debate about this important proposal. The paper is the most significant options study we have had on the establishment of a full correctional facility in the ACT. It is not final Government policy and it should not be read as a management plan. It should, however, be read as it was intended - a paper designed to generate public discussion and informed debate on the options and issues surrounding the establishment of a correctional facility.
