Education and Child Development Department

In reply to Mr PISONI (Unley) (12 November 2014). (First Session)

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector): I have been advised:

In 2013 a total of 30 legal claims against the Department for Education and Child Development were settled. In 2014, a total of 37 legal claims against the Department were settled.

The nature of these claims varies with the most common types of claims being for trips and falls or impact by a moving/falling objects.
