      OPERATION RETZ
Page: 982

      The Hon. CHARLIE LYNN: My question without notice is directed to the Attorney General. Will the Attorney confirm that the Operation Retz report, which was tabled in this House yesterday, was signed by the Assistant Ombudsman (Police) on 23 February 2005? Will he advise why NSW Police defied an order by Justice Johnson of the New South Wales Supreme Court to release the report in regard to the defamation action taken by former Detective Sergeant Tim Priest for approximately 12 months? Is it acceptable practice for the New South Wales Government to defy rulings of the New South Wales Supreme Court? What was the cost to New South Wales taxpayers of the NSW Police defiance of the Supreme Court ruling? What action will the Attorney take to instruct New South Wales government departments to comply with the rulings of Supreme Court judges?

      The Hon. JOHN HATZISTERGOS: Almost all of those issues relate to the Minister for Police, and I will obtain an answer from him.
