House of Assembly Fifty-Second Parliament, Second Session (52-2) 52 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Child Protection Inquiry CHILD PROTECTION INQUIRY Mr MARSHALL House of Assembly Norwood Leader of the Opposition CHILD PROTECTION INQUIRY Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (14:42): My question is to the Premier. At any point since it was revealed that Mr Blewett received the email advising of the rape of a seven-year-old child at a western suburbs school, has Mr Blewett ever offered, tendered, attempted to or actually resigned his position as chief of staff, and if so how did the Premier respond? The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL House of Assembly Cheltenham Premier Minister for State Development Minister for the Public Sector Minister for the Arts CHILD PROTECTION INQUIRY The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Treasurer, Minister for State Development, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for the Arts) (14:42): I point out that there is an error in the recount of the question by the Leader of the Opposition. He persistently, and on different occasions, uses inflammatory language to describe what the chief of staff was told. He was not told about a rape of a child at a school. The email that he in fact received is set out in Mr Debelle's reasons. It is inflammatory to say that. It is simply erroneous to say that. The answer to the question is no.
