CHILD PROTECTION

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:52): During the Child Death and Serious Injury Review Committee inquiry into the 'house of horrors' case, were any of the people who had contact with the families before 28 June interviewed and, if not, why not?

The SPEAKER: I think that is a separate question. The Minister for Education.

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (14:53): I will make the point at the outset in answering the member for Unley's questions that we have 21 young people still living in our community, so I think it is incumbent upon us to be a bit respectful in the way that we refer to their families. There are six people who are in gaol—as I said, rightly so—but there are 21 young people out there whom your words can still hurt. The role of the Child Death and Serious Injury Review Committee is to review the processes and practices of the case. That is exactly what it did. South Australia Police undertook interviews with people involved.
