Child Protection

Ms HILDYARD (Reynell) (14:43): My question is to the Minister for Child Protection. Minister, did you make the Guardian for Children and Young People aware of the two cases of children in your care being sexually abused and pregnant in 2020?

The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection) (14:43): I don't believe it is my role. I believe there is a significant incident reporting unit that has now been established—

An honourable member interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. R. SANDERSON: —and at no point does it say that the minister is to inform the guardian. There is a procedure. The guardian is notified when I am notified.

Mr Malinauskas interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The leader is called to order.
