My question is to the Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion. Can the minister advise why a 'national criminal history record check and screening assessment' from the Department for Communities and Social Inclusion does not meet the screening requirement for employment in the health department? With leave from the house, I will briefly explain. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Well, if you must. Mr WINGARD House of Assembly Mr WINGARD: A constituent of mine seeking employment with the health department has provided a screening assessment obtained by the Department for Communities and Social Inclusion as part of a pre-employment process. He has been informed that the health department finds this assessment inadequate and requires another assessment, at a cost of $120.
