Renmark High School Presentation

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:18): My question is to the Minister for Education, Training and Skills. Can the minister confirm that the person who gave the presentation possessed all the necessary working with children checks required to engage directly with minors in schools?

The Hon. B.I. BOYER (Wright—Minister for Education, Training and Skills) (15:18): I thank the member for Morialta for the question. I have sought advice on that. I don't have that advice yet, but I am happy to share it with the member for Morialta in this place as soon as I have it. As I explained in an answer I gave previously, it was Focus One Health that had been subcontracted by Headspace that are one of the very regular providers in this area, and they found the presenter. I am very happy to provide an answer to the member for Morialta on what, I must say, is a very fair question about whether or not those things were in place and come back to him personally, and the house, at the earliest opportunity.
