CHILD PROTECTION

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:24): Was the government aware of where the alleged child sex offender and the children were being accommodated on this trip?

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Business Services and Consumers) (14:25): Let us just think for a moment about what this question is.

Mr Pengilly interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Finniss is called to order.

The Hon. J.R. RAU: The question is not: was SAPOL aware? The question is not: was a magistrate or member of the judiciary made aware? The question is: was the executive government of the state—which presumably because it must have to be through the police or the judiciary is my ministerial colleague, the Minister for Police, or myself—routinely told by the courts or the police about when one of maybe thousands of potential alleged offenders in South Australia are on or off a bus? The answer should be obvious.

Mr Marshall: You are really trivialising it.

The Hon. J.R. RAU: I am not.

Mr Marshall: You are.

The SPEAKER: The leader is warned for the first time.
