Child Protection

Ms SANDERSON (Adelaide) (15:24): My question is to the Minister for Education and Child Development. Are the three children, who were living in the home where a Craigmore woman was recently attacked by a group of men armed with hammers, known to the Department for Child Protection and, if so, what supports or interventions had they received prior to the incident?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:25): I won't comment on that specific case now. What I will do is take advice on what is appropriate to provide information on, given the sensitive nature of children's information, and provide that to the house after that advice.
