The Police Minister says it is far too early to know if any Government agencies could have stopped today's shooting.

Ginny Andersen says the police, justice and corrections ministries will be looking into the situation.

"Today, all those organisations will be undertaking a full review of exactly what happened here to particularly understand if there were any flags that were missed."
