Child Protection

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:39): My supplementary is to the Attorney-General, or Minister for Child Protection Reform: what is the extra cost of the now further extension of the royal commission?

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Child Protection Reform, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for Consumer and Business Services, Minister for the City of Adelaide) (14:39): That is a good question. I can't actually recall what it is but I will find out, because there undoubtedly would have been an estimation of the cost of this as part and parcel of the rigorous process that my colleague the Treasurer insists upon before we bring matters to the cabinet; so I would have to check.
