Question Time

Oakden Mental Health Facility

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (15:07): My question is to the Minister for Mental Health. Does the minister stand by her statements that she initiated the review of practices at the Oakden Older Persons Mental Health Service?

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (15:07): When I received advice from the head of NALHN, Jackie Hanson, that there were concerns so great, yes, I do acknowledge that, as the minister, I initiated the review, which was commenced in December and released to the parliament and the public recently.
