Question Time

Royal Adelaide Hospital Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit

The Hon. I. PNEVMATIKOS (14:57): My question is to the Minister for Health and Wellbeing. If it wasn't safe for the Royal Adelaide Hospital's psychiatric intensive care unit to open without fully functional duress alarms previously, why does the minister think it is safe now?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:57): Because the Chief Psychiatrist has done an inspection, put on conditions and said that the unit is an authorised unit in his view.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Ms Pnevmatikos, a supplementary.
