Answer

I am advised that Corrections takes all allegations of sexual harassment extremely seriously and has processes in place to respond to these. This includes referring matters to external agencies when required to investigate and or mediate such allegations. I am advised that to provide this information would amount to substantial collation and manual analysis, which I am not prepared to ask of my officials for the purposes of this response.
