Child Protection

Ms HILDYARD (Reynell) (15:01): My question is again to the Minister for Child Protection. When was the minister first advised about the rape of a 16-year-old boy in state care by Richard Ian Squires?

The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection) (15:01): I see that you are getting your questions from the same journalist that sent through the exact same questions earlier today. As this house is well aware, we have recently instigated a significant incident reporting unit which reports regularly. I have regular updates with my CE and executive team and I am advised on a regular basis in a timely manner. I was fully briefed of this case in a timely manner.
