Child Protection

Mr ELLIS (Narungga) (14:43): A quick supplementary, minister: who will form the carers council and how will they be selected to sit on it?

The Hon. K.A. HILDYARD (Reynell—Minister for Child Protection, Minister for Women and the Prevention of Domestic and Family Violence, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:43): Excellent question. What I can say is that we are currently in procurement negotiations about a body to facilitate the carer council and in coming days we will be able to announce that. I am certainly happy to give you a call and fill you in on that as well.
