Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Disability Services Disability Services The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition Disability Services The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:37): My question is to the Minister for Human Services regarding disability services. Minister, are you aware of any deaths in disability accommodation in South Australia since you became minister, and how many reports of deaths have you become personally aware of that have arisen from a critical incident or potential lack of care in the disability services area? The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK Legislative Council Minister for Human Services Disability Services The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:37): I would need to take that on notice. I certainly receive incident management reports, but I would need to double-check. If it was a death from natural causes, then that is not something that would be reported through our critical incident system. If it was a death by a failure of care, then that would be something that I would be made aware of. But in terms of those incident management reports, they relate to things that are within the state system. At the moment, that would involve state disability accommodation services, and we do not receive information about deaths of people who are within the NDIS system.
