STRATHMONT CENTRE

The Hon. K.L. VINCENT (14:35): Is the minister able to provide a similar update about the residents remaining at the Strathmont Centre?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (14:35): I thank the honourable member for her most important question. My understanding is that there are currently 25 residents still remaining at the Strathmont Centre. We have made provision in the budget to close the Strathmont residential facility and move those people into community accommodation as well.
