Child Protection

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:16): My question is to the Minister for Education and Child Development. When did the minister first become aware that the police commissioner would publicly reveal the SAPOL investigation into the former employee referred by Families SA?

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development) (14:16): I will preface my answer by saying it would be nice to hear something soon about the children, the subject of this particular matter. Never mind, sir.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Minister, I would prefer that you addressed the substance of the question.

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE: Sir, I probably heard about it at exactly the same time as the leader did.
