          <by role="member" id="4991">Mr DULUK (Davenport) (15:26):</by>  My question is again to the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse. Have you been briefed on the medication errors at the Oakden facility which contributed to the recent imposition of commonwealth sanctions against the facility?</text>

          <by role="member" id="4336">The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (15:26):</by>  There has been media on the Spriggs case that was put before the ABC. Late last year, I became aware of that case from NALHN that involved medication errors. At that time, I triggered, as I have said in a ministerial statement in the past, in February, and again today, an independent review into the Oakden site. That review is ongoing, and I am expecting the report later this month, in a few days' time, and at that point of time I will address those concerns.</text>
