SCHOOLS — PHYSICAL RESTRAINT OF STUDENTS
1202. Hon ALISON XAMON to the Minister for Education and
Training:
I refer to the minister's
answer to my question on notice 1680 regarding the physical restraint of
students. Will the minister please advise the correct answer to part (e), which
seeks the number of individual students who were restrained and not the number
of incidents as provided in her original answer to my question?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
The Department of Education advises
that in the table in part (e), the heading ''Number of incidents''
should have been ''Number of students''. The data provided is
correct.
