I repeat my request as to when, because I do not think the minister gave an approximate date in that answer. I also ask a supplementary question. I refer to the minister's statement the day after the Four Corners report on abuse at the Don Dale Youth Detention Centre:

I wish I'd known what I know today, or I knew yesterday afternoon, some time ago, but the facts of the matter were I didn't know.

Is this statement correct?
