Oakden Mental Health Facility

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:58): How does the minister reconcile evidence given to the Select Committee on Transforming Health on 12 May by the CEO of NALHN, Jackie Hanson, that she was first made aware of the Spriggs case, and I quote, 'towards the end of November' when the Principal Community Visitor's letter to the minister of 14 October 2016 clearly states, and I quote:

…despite numerous follow-ups to Oakden and NALHN management by our office, we have still not received a formal response in over four months.

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:58): Ms Hanson has given evidence. I am not going to comment on her evidence. We know there has been an inquiry, it has taken place, we are implementing the six recommendations and very shortly the residents of Oakden will have a new home at Northgate.
