CHILD PROTECTION

Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (14:09): Following on from that, is it the case that the only correspondence sent by the minister's office to this family was an automatically generated email simply acknowledging receipt of the family's letter?

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (14:09): No, that is not correct. There was a letter that was sent to the family, as I have said on numerous occasions this week, I think it was on 4 June, where we advised the family that the matter had been referred to the Minister for Police.

The SPEAKER: Before the next question, could I just call to order that serial offender, the member for Kavel. Leader.
