VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:22):</by>  As I have just previously stated, Oakden will be closed. We will rely on the advice of the transition committee led by Mr Stubbs on the appropriate timing of that time, but the most important thing is that the people at Makk and McLeay who have been at the centre of the Oakden report are important, that we place their care and concern and quality of environment and respect for their difficult end of their lives that they are potentially facing with dementia and other mental health conditions, that we fast-track the care and concerns. That is what this government has had at the heart of its response to this terrible report that we received in April.</text>
