Question Time

Safeguarding Taskforce

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:12): My question is to the Premier. Does the Premier stand by his commitment that the task force established following the shocking death of Ann Marie Smith will hand down its interim report by mid-June?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:12): Yes, that's my understanding. A committee or a task force has been formed. It's jointly chaired by a former member of the Legislative Council and the Disability Advocate in South Australia. It is a 14-person task force. My understanding is that the interim report will be ready for presentation to the government on 15 June, with a final report due by 31 July.
