          <by role="member" id="1804">Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:33):</by>  Supplementary question. I thank the minister for indicating she will provide some information back to the house. If in fact there have been any recommendations from the committee to date, my question is: which of the committee's findings have translated into implementation to date? If there are any that you have implemented, we are seeking what they are. I am happy for you to take that on notice.</text>

          <by role="member" id="614">The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development) (14:34):</by>  Again, I will take that on notice. The questions the member is asking would require the department to go back many, many years. These are really very detailed questions that the member is asking. What I can do is come to the house with a very comprehensive outline of many reforms that have been undertaken since we came to government in 2002. Many of those, of course, were driven by the Layton report. What we know is that child protection was in absolute disarray prior to us coming into government. This government is the government that has shone a light on child protection. It is this government that has more than doubled—</text>

We have reviewed the department through the Layton review. We had Justice Mullighan looking at child protection both for children in state care and for children on the APY lands. We established the Child Death and Serious Injury Review Committee. We established the guardian for children. We have more than doubled the number of child protection workers—</text>
