CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:45):</by>  I appreciate the question as this is a very important area of service delivery. My understanding is that the industrial action being undertaken by the family careworkers will not affect the services to children.</text>
