Legislative Council Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Sex Education Sex Education The Hon. S.L. GAME Legislative Council Sex Education The Hon. S.L. GAME (15:07): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before directing a question to the Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services, representing the education minister, regarding visual resources used for sexual education classes in South Australian schools. Leave granted. The Hon. S.L. GAME Legislative Council The Hon. S.L. GAME: A book titled Sex: Safe and Fun—Support Person's Guide is on the teacher catalogue for SHINE SA, which is one of only three approved sex education providers for Australian public schools that choose to source classes externally. The book has not been classified by the Australian Classification Board and it contains what a South Australian based classifier has described as a 'clear instruction of paedophilia'. Presently, not all visual resources used for teaching health, sex and relationship classes are required to be officially classified. My questions to the Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services, representing the education minister, are: 1.	Does the government agree that all visual resources should be officially classified before being made available to use for teaching health, sex and relationship classes in South Australia, and will the government commit to investigating why this is not happening? 2.	Does the government accept that there is a current risk to South Australian schoolchildren being sexualised by the education system and acknowledge the widespread parental concern on this matter? 3.	Does the government agree that is in fact parents, and not schools or government, who are in charge of the moral and ethical teaching of children? The Hon. E.S.

BOURKE (Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Autism, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (15:09): I thank the member for her question. I am happy to refer that and see what the minister can bring back.
