Child Protection

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:54): Supplementary: of those persons, including the guardian, whom the minister proposes to consult, which one of those was not consulted in either the Mullighan report or the Nyland inquiry?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (14:54): Without having the exhaustive list of who was consulted by Justice Nyland, I can't give a definitive answer, but my expectation is that those people in the Department for Health, particularly mental health, would expect to have a more detailed and finally resolved consultation on precisely how we do this, which is entirely what was anticipated in Margaret Nyland's report.
