Child Protection Department Budget

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (15:02): My question is to the Minister for Child Protection. Have all the savings required of the Department for Child Protection in the government's 2018-19 budget been delivered? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN: In the government's 2018-19 budget, $4.4 million a year of savings were required from the Department for Child Protection from that year onwards.

The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection) (15:03): That was obviously a few years ago, the 2018-19 budget. As far as I am aware, and I will certainly get back to the house to confirm this, I believe my CE was so excited to have actually met a budget because it was just so unusual and extraordinary. I believe my department is doing a fantastic job at keeping to their budget.
