Oakden Mental Health Facility

Mr DULUK (Davenport) (14:43): Supplementary: does the minister also accept Dr McKellar's warning that the lack of a plan will have implications for emergency departments and acute medical services heading into winter?

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:43): I have said to the house that the ongoing development of the model of care is a piece of work that needs to be carefully considered. I will listen to a number of voices about this and have those recommendations brought to me as we fully implement the six recommendations in the Oakden report.
