House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 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) (15:12): My question is to the Minister for Education and Child Development. Can the minister confirm whether Families SA still relies upon single-staff shifts and whether the government will implement recommendation 150 from the royal commission and abandon this practice? The Hon. S.E. Close interjecting: Mr Marshall House of Assembly Mr Marshall: Why is it so funny, Susan? The Hon. S.E. CLOSE House of Assembly Port Adelaide Minister for Education and Child Development Minister for Higher Education and Skills The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:12): I just love the enthusiasm; it's beautiful. My recollection of 150—and I would just like to confirm—is that that relates to commercial care shifts. That is referring to 'abandon single-handed shifts', yes. We are in the process of redrawing the contracts with our commercial carers so that there are no longer single-handed shifts for commercial carers. It obviously takes a period of time to both redo the contract and for them to recruit. A broader consideration of moving away from single-handed shifts is an ongoing consideration as part of the response.
