the Minister for Child Protection:
I refer to the minister's
announcement on 7 August 2019 that $440 000 will go towards implementing the
first trial of the Anglicare-led Home Stretch program, supporting up to 15 care

scheduled to commence?

the first trial?

used for the first trial?

intended?

recent briefing note she received about the first trial?
