CHILD PROTECTION

The Hon. I.F. EVANS (Davenport) (14:47): Not for the first time. My question is to the Premier. Now that the government has had 24 hours to get an answer, can the Premier advise if the then Minister for Police or his office was advised by SAPOL of the rape of the seven year old at a western suburbs school in December 2010 and, if they were advised, on what date?

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Treasurer, Minister for State Development, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for the Arts) (14:48): We have taken the question on notice, and repeating the question is not going to change those circumstances.

Ms Chapman: Don't mislead the house.

The SPEAKER: The deputy leader will withdraw—

Ms Chapman: I will withdraw that.

The SPEAKER: —and apologise.

The Hon. J.D. Hill: Sit down.

The SPEAKER: Thank you. The member for Kaurna is called to order.
