Jane Searle: Child Matters CEO on the inquiry into Tom Phillips' time on the run with his children - Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

A youth protection advocate says it's entirely appropriate to look deeper into Tom Phillips' children's four years on the run. 

The saga ended when he died in a Police shootout in September. 

The Government will explore whether agencies did everything possible for the children's safety and welfare. 

Child Matters Chief Executive Jane Searle told Ryan Bridge she’s hopeful it will be a constructive process. 

She says they want is the system to be strengthened as a result of the review.
