BOYER (Wright—Minister for Education, Training and Skills) (15:02):</by>  I thank the member for Morialta for his question and that is indeed a good question. As I said, investigation continues into exactly what took place and how we got to a stage where someone who should not have been giving a presentation like this was not only giving the presentation but was giving it with an absence of any staff members there, and in the absence of parental approval being given as well.</text>
        <text id="20240409ca9dffe143934f54a0000419">I am happy to update both the member for Morialta and this house once I have a clearer picture of why that wasn't done, but I have already been alerted and seen the communications that have gone out from 31 Flinders Street to all our schools and leaders reminding them very clearly of all the obligations they have in relation to providing respectful relationships sessions to students both in terms of making sure that parents are given the opportunity to withdraw their kids from it in advance if they wish, and also making sure that there are staff there present at all times.</text>
