House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, First Session (53-1) 53 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Child Protection Child Protection Ms SANDERSON House of Assembly Adelaide Child Protection Ms SANDERSON (Adelaide) (15:22): Supplementary: can the minister advise if any other children have had more than 21 Child Abuse Report Line notifications, and if so, how many? The Hon. J.M. RANKINE House of Assembly Wright Minister for Education and Child Development Child Protection The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development) (15:22): I thank the member for Adelaide for her question. There are reports made multiple times about multiple children, often about the same instance. So, I am not going to say— Mr Marshall House of Assembly Mr Marshall: Twenty-one of them? The Hon. J.M. RANKINE House of Assembly The Hon. J.M. RANKINE: No, there are situations—when a report comes in, they are assessed and rated. I think we have something like one in four children in South Australia have a report made about them or involving them at some point in time, and it may be that one child has two or three people making a report about a single incident. It may be rated as a tier 3 notification, which is contact the family, send them a letter, engage them with a service. It is not the number of notifications, it is the content of the notifications that needs to be assessed. Mr van Holst Pellekaan interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The member for Stuart is warned. The member for Adelaide.
