Child Protection

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): My question, however, is to the Minister for Education and Child Development. My question to the minister is: when was the chief executive officer of the then department of families and communities informed of the then minister's, now Premier's, commitment to the parliament on 1 December 2005 to provide certain information on child protection applications made in the Youth Court to be included in their annual reports?

Ms Redmond: It's not quite 10 years; there's a few months to go.

The SPEAKER: The member for Heysen is called to order.

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:33): Clearly, I will have to take that on notice. That vastly predates me.

Mr Goldsworthy interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Kavel behaved very badly yesterday and I can hear him from up here. Deputy leader.
