Education and Child Development Department Employees

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (14:52): Supplementary: are there any reviews being taken into this incident and, in particular, into the evidence that was described by the magistrate as being the result of collusion by the staff members of DECD? Are there any reviews of this taking place other than that she has just identified being done by the chief executive?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (14:52): I did try to forestall this question by explaining that the chief executive will undertake an examination of the comments that were made. I am unaware of whether there are any other and independent reviews being undertaken. I can determine if that is the case and provide the information to the parliament.
