Child Protection

Ms HILDYARD (Reynell) (15:00): My question is to the Minister for Child Protection. Minister, was a teen in your care targeted on a dating app, driven to a predator's house and sexually abused? With your leave, and that of the house, I will explain, Mr Speaker.

Leave granted.

Ms HILDYARD: On 19 October 2021, a court heard details that a 16-year-old child in state care was lured from their place of residence through an online dating app and sexually abused by Richard Ian Squires.

The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection) (15:01): I have nothing to add that's not already been on the record.
