Oakden Mental Health Facility

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:36): My question is to the Minister for Mental Health. In light of the government's commitment to 'take assertive action against every single person who seeks to cover up mistakes that occur in the system', does that commitment extend to the management of the local health network?

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:36): In dealing with the Oakden report and inquiry, I have sought advice from the local health network, in this instance it is NALHN, that is, the Northern Adelaide Local Health Network. Their chief, Jackie Hanson, the CE of that organisation, has been providing base-level briefings to me. The first one that we had was the Spriggs one last December. She continually works on a day-to-day basis with the families, with Dr McKellar and with new clinical leadership we have placed on that site since January to address the ongoing issues and the six recommendations from the Oakden report.
