CHILD PROTECTION

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (15:04): My question is to the Minister for Education and Child Development with responsibility for child protection. Did Families SA refer the 2010 child sex abuse case at the western suburbs primary school to the Child Death and Serious Injury Review Committee? This morning on radio the police commissioner confirmed that SAPOL officers complied with mandatory notification obligations and reported the events to the then department families and communities in December 2010.

The Hon. G. PORTOLESI (Hartley—Minister for Education and Child Development) (15:05): I am sure that the member for Morialta would appreciate that this is a question that I would need to take on notice. A mandatory notification—

Mr Pisoni: You had a full briefing yesterday.

The SPEAKER: Member for Unley, order!

The Hon. G. PORTOLESI: —is made to the Child Abuse Report Line. The Child Death and Serious Injury Review Committee is a different body altogether.

Ms Chapman: Yes, that's what the question was. Did you refer to them or not?

The SPEAKER: Order! The minister has said she will take it on notice. The member for Davenport.
