            <by role="member" id="4847">Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (11:10):</by>  I made the vast majority of my contribution last time I spoke. I was really imploring the minister to take a very strong look at this in a very practical common-sense way so that we can recognise the good work that foster parents and foster carers do in very difficult circumstances, and in the most difficult of circumstances, that is, in the advent of one of their foster children dying.</text>
          <text id="20141113a4b5f07166da45ab90000110">I understand that this matter is still under consideration by the minister, and I will use this opportunity to implore her to please, please take on board the grief, suffering and hardship that foster carers go through in these circumstances and assent to what is otherwise a very simple, very common-sense, very matter-of-fact change to the legislation in order to recognise foster carers. With that, I complete my remarks.</text>
