Childcare Services

Ms SANDERSON (Adelaide) (14:16): Thank you. My question is to the Minister for Education and Child Development. How long had the 15 year old under the guardianship of the minister who was allegedly driving the car that caused the death of the 48-year-old mother been missing, and had the minister been notified?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (14:16): I am extremely reluctant to air the personal details of children under my guardianship; and, indeed, there are a lot of legal restrictions on what information is possible to release. I will take the question on notice, and I will seek advice on the appropriateness of providing what level of detail in this public forum.
