Child Protection Department

847 Ms HILDYARD (Reynell) (13 October 2021). Had the Christies Downs man who was arrested on 18 June and charged with manslaughter and criminal neglect after the death of baby boy in his care, previously had child abuse concerns raised about his conduct?

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

The Department for Child Protection does not publicly release information on individual child protection matters, particularly where persons are the subject of a police investigation.

There are established legal processes in place and the matter is currently before the courts.
