House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Child Protection Child Protection Ms HILDYARD House of Assembly Reynell Child Protection Ms HILDYARD (Reynell) (14:33): Supplementary again to the Minister for Child Protection: who did the child protection workers, who you have just stated reported the incident to police, tell in the department? The Hon. R. SANDERSON House of Assembly Adelaide Minister for Child Protection Child Protection The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection) (14:33): As I just indicated, the staff, to their credit, were only focused on the child, the child's best interests—reporting this to the police, getting the right therapies and safety network around this young person—and that was their focus. They reported it to police, which is their protocol, and then from there there was a conviction. The staff, I don't know who they have told, but their role was to tell the police. They did that. They put in all of the services that were required by the young person. At no point did they worry about the minister or the opposition. They were thinking about the child and I congratulate them on looking after the child's interests first.
