Australian Craniofacial Unit

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:46): My question is again to the Premier. Why is the unique multidisciplinary team of the Australian Craniofacial Unit being impacted by SA Health not reappointing a senior oral surgeon as at 30 June?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:46): I don't have that information with me. I think those concerns were made last week by Professor David. I am seeking an answer from the department and I will come back to you, but I was assured that a merit-based process was entered into for the head of that unit. I don't have any specific details, but I am happy to make further inquiries for the member and provide them to him as soon as possible.
