Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 986 asked in the Legislative Council on 16 November 2021 by Hon Donna Faragher

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

EARLY YEARS INITIATIVE

986. Hon DONNA FARAGHER to the parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Community Services:

I refer to the Early Years Initiative and the 10-year partnership between the Department of Communities, the Minderoo Foundation and the Telethon Kids Institute.

(1) Can the minister confirm that reviews of the initiative are to be conducted at three, five and 10-year intervals of the partnership?

(2) If no to (1), will the minister provide more detail on when reviews of the initiative will be conducted?

Hon SAMANTHA ROWE replied:

I thank the member for some notice of the question.

(1)–(2) The Early Years Initiative partners committed to a 10-year partnership in early 2018, subject to periodic reviews of progress. The progress of the Early Years Initiative has been regularly considered by its board since commencement. Any formal review outside the ongoing board process is a matter for the board.
