Outhouse, who is also working as Higgs's campaign manager, was the only government representative to view the presentation Thursday. 

Higgs told reporters the intention behind that was to "have a neutral person just look at" the content. 

The premier has said the group's presentation went beyond the curriculum, but on Friday he said department staff will evaluate whether that's the case.

"That wasn't the purpose of that meeting," he said when asked why no Department of Education staff attended Thursday's meeting to evaluate the content. "It will come to that, I'm sure.

"I don't have a full assessment of that discussion, but I understand the next step is to measure that against the curriculum."  

Teresa Norris, president of the non-profit organization, said on Thursday she has presented in New Brunswick for years without issue until Higgs posted the cover slide from her presentation online.

It featured questions about anal sex, pornography, and other topics Higgs called "clearly inappropriate" and outside of the sex education curriculum. He later told reporters he had not seen the full presentation.

"In all of our years, we have never had anybody work with us, see our presentation, or in an aftermath ever have any issue with our presentation," she said. 

"The only thing that happens after our presentation is, typically, somebody is saying, 'could you come to our school too?'"

Norris told reporters the provincial Department of Health and Department of Education both had a hand in vetting the presentation.

She previously told CBC News schools are required to view an outline of the presentation and sign a consent form before she delivers it to students.

But Higgs questioned whether presentations like this one should be approved after seeing a "one-pager" outline rather than a full presentation.

"At this point in time we haven't found anyone in the system that actually looked at the presentation," he said. 

"If there wasn't clarity going in to what was acceptable or considered acceptable and what wasn't, that's a problem. If there wasn't a request to see the entire presentation before you present it to 200 kids in an auditorium, that's a problem."

Outhouse called the meeting "constructive" in an interview Friday. 

"We definitely have more information now than when we started," he said. "There are some followup questions that we have."

He's asked the organization to share more information about its communication with the departments. 

"The overall question will be, was this a situation where the vetting process wasn't thorough enough to determine if there would be issues?" Outhouse said. "Or whether the vetting process was thorough but not enough information was provided.

"Ultimately, where we want to get to at the end of the day is to have a process so that educators can still decide ... what's appropriate to be put forward, but parents have adequate notice so they can decide if they wish to have their children participate or not."
