Oakden Mental Health Facility
Mr DULUK (Davenport) (15:49): To the Minister for Mental Health: when was the minister made aware of the concerns of Lorraine Baff about her husband's treatment at Oakden?
The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (15:50): The first time I became aware of Mrs Baff having a consumer—that is, her husband—at the Oakden site was when I was a parliamentary secretary. It was in the media, really, that it came to light that it was Mrs Baff. In retrospect, we now know the Tony Zappia letter related to Mrs Baff, but until that came to light in the media I wouldn't have even known that it was related to the Baff case because it wasn't highlighted in the Zappia letter.
