          <by role="member" id="614">The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development) (15:14):</by>  That would depend on the nature of the notification. But, yes, when I was minister previously there was a protocol that I asked to be put in place so that, if there were high level tier notifications, they would not be treated as individual but assessed collectively. In Chloe Valentine's case it is incorrect to assert that there were not supports in place for that family. There were.</text>
