Older Persons Mental Health Service

Mr DULUK (Davenport) (14:47): My question is to the Minister for Mental Health. Why is Ward 18, the older person's mental health facility at the Repat, not one of the facilities identified to be audited in the Fjeldsoe review?

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:48): My understanding is that Ward 18 is to be closed shortly as part of the development of the Flinders older persons mental health unit, which will be a 30-bed facility.
