          <by role="member" id="3164">The Hon. S.G. WADE (15:02):</by>  I thank the minister for his answer. I appreciate the minister may need to take this supplementary on notice, but if I understood the minister's answer, the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse issues an order under the Mental Health Act which allows the person to be detained in a correctional facility. My question is: do the collaborative discussions that the minister referred to occur before that order is issued and therefore the order is issued with the consent, for want of a better word, of the Department for Correctional Services, or is that a matter for the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse to use personal ministerial discretion?</text>

That question is best directed to the responsible minister, which is the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse. I will have to take that on notice and refer it to the responsible minister in the other place for a response.</text>
