I refer to the answer to question without notice 882, asked in the Legislative Council on 15 August 2024 by Hon Donna Faragher, regarding the Saturday opening of child development service sites, and I ask: (a) can the Minister detail how many sites were identified through the expression of interest process undertaken to identify a site that had an appropriate workforce to operate on Saturdays; (b) can the Minister give the locations of the sites identified in (a); (c) were any sites deemed suitable; and (d) how many sites have been expanded to being open on Saturday since the Minister said, "The child development service will continue to seek to expand the number of sites open on a Saturday, subject to workforce availability"?
