AnswerView source ↗
I thank the member for some notice of the question.
I reiterate the issue of Terry Murphy leaving the department
and wish him all the very best. I am advised by the Department for Child
Protection and Family Support that since 1 July 2013 no overseas work-related
travel has been undertaken by the chief executive officer. Between 29 July and
31 August 2013, interstate travel was undertaken by the CEO at the invitation
of the government of the Northern Territory. The purpose of this travel was to
make presentations on the Signs of Safety program's approach to child
protection, including to cabinet members and their staff. This travel was fully
paid for by the Northern Territory government.
