When the minister was advised that the matter referring to the Oakden staff member previously accused of assault had been previously investigated, and before instructing that there be another review of that investigation, did you inquire as to what the outcome of that investigation was? The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS House of Assembly Taylor Minister for Disabilities Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Oakden Mental Health Facility The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:45): As I stated earlier today, I have made my expectations very clear to the CE of SA Health, that any claims by families are to be investigated. But the claims that came forward yesterday in the media, that an Oakden staff member previously accused of assault remains employed, was news that I had not previously been made aware of. Whilst I am advised that this matter had been investigated previously, I have instructed, as I stated before, a review of a previous investigation so I can be satisfied that they were conducted properly. I have said, and I will reiterate that to the house now, that I will report back to the families affected and the house when more information becomes available.
