Child Protection

In reply to the Hon. C. BONAROS (28 October 2021).

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services): I have been advised:

Foster Carer Reviews

While the Department for Child Protection (DCP) was finalising its mechanism for consolidated reporting on foster carer reviews, it used compliance reporting from each contracted NGO to ensure legislative requirements were met

In terms of formal quarterly NGO contract reporting against the foster carer review KPI, this commences in the current quarter of 2021-22 (quarter two). Any necessary performance management responses required under DCP's Contract Performance Management Framework will be initiated as part of the quarter three contract management follow-up process.

Temporary Staffing Contracts

In accordance with the DCP Contract Performance Management Framework, temporary staffing service providers have submitted their 2021-22 quarter one KPI reporting through DCP’s Contract Management and Licensing System.

Performance Development Plans (PDPs)

DCP’s PDP completion rates continue to improve and, as at 30 September 2021, 74 per cent of staff had a current PDP. In terms of the new performance management system, which was recently procured by the department, a planned pilot phase is underway and it is expected that full implementation of the system will be complete by the end of December 2021.
