Production of documents

Melbourne medically supervised injecting facility

The Clerk: I table a letter from the Attorney-General dated 6 March 2024 in response to the resolution of the Council on 21 February 2024 on the motion of Mr Ettershank relating to the medically supervised injecting room in Melbourne’s CBD. The government makes a claim of executive privilege at this time in respect of the report identified in paragraph (a) of the resolution. The letter further states that the date for the production of the documents identified in paragraph (b) does not allow sufficient time to respond and that the government will endeavour to provide a final response to the order as soon as possible.
