Ms CARTER - 2004-04-01
Today in court, a 48-year-old man has been refused bail after being accused of sexual intercourse and other sexual acts with a 10-year-old Darwin girl while she was in the care of your child protection service. How could your child protection service fail this child in such an extreme way, and what are you doing to address this matter?
ANSWER
Madam Speaker, I thank the member for her question. I reiterate that it is inappropriate to comment on individual cases, and this case is before the court. It is disturbing. It is a concern and it is something that we are working on.
