Child Protection, Rice Inquiry

In reply to Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (16 February 2021).

The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection): I have been advised:

As Minister for Child Protection, I have at various times been briefed on a case-by-case basis on matters relating to girls and young women in care who were pregnant.

I have regular meetings with executives of the Department for Child Protection at which I am informed of the total number of cases of pregnant girls and young women in care.
