AT-RISK
CHILDREN — CARNARVON
457. Dr D.J. HONEY to the Minister for Child Protection:
I have a supplementary question.
Has the minister even bothered to visit the streets of Carnarvon to observe the
tragic outcomes of her inaction?
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Order, please,
members. Given the time and that it is a supplementary question, I ask for a brief
answer, please.

AnswerView source ↗

Yes, I have been to Carnarvon a couple
of times. I have visited the child protection staff and community sector
organisations there. As I said, this is difficult work. The efforts to build
good communities are not served well by a divisive and shallow opposition that
is thinking only about the next by-election.
The SPEAKER : That concludes
question time.
