Grandparents for Grandchildren SA
Ms STINSON (Badcoe) (14:34): My question is to the Minister for Child Protection.
Members interjecting:
The SPEAKER: Order!
Ms STINSON: How many days after she was informed that the scheduled television interview was cancelled did the minister approve the funding for Grandparents for Grandchildren?
The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: Point of order.
The SPEAKER: The point of order—
Members interjecting:
The SPEAKER: Order! The point of order is for argument.
The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: Point of order: once again, Speaker—
The SPEAKER: 97.
The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: —the question includes argument. It's out of order.
The SPEAKER: It does. Member for Badcoe, I will give you one go to rephrase the question.
Ms STINSON: Thank you, Mr Speaker. How many days after the minister's initial meeting—since her appointment—with Grandparents for Grandchildren did she inform them that their funding would be restored?
The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection) (14:35): I wasn't even told that a meeting was definitely going ahead or not going ahead. It's up to Grandparents for Grandchildren. Their media engagements are up to them and I have no say in them.
