Mr WINGARD (Mitchell) (14:20): My question is to the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse. Why is the government closing the Marion Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service as part of its Transforming Health cuts plan?

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:20): Having seen some news articles on that, I have asked for a briefing.
