House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Children in Out-Of-Home Care Children in Out-of-Home Care Ms SANDERSON House of Assembly Adelaide Children in Out-of-Home Care Ms SANDERSON (Adelaide) (15:14): Supplementary: will the minister also provide the house with a figure of how many children in her care have case plans as required? The Hon. S.E. CLOSE House of Assembly Port Adelaide Minister for Education and Child Development Minister for Higher Education and Skills Children in Out-of-Home Care The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:14): It may well be that that can't be answered without the work on C3MS and therefore, by the nature of not having had that work yet done, if that is indeed the case, I will not be able to provide that information as yet. C3MS is not a spectacularly useful system for generating answers on a systemic level. It is useful for managing an individual child's case, which is what it is designed for. There are occasions when what is asked of it is a summary across different cases. It is not designed for that purpose and is often not able to produce the kind of material people are asking for.
