The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:04): Supplementary arising from the original answer: has the rate or format of the independent assessments been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in any way? If it has been adverse, has any advocacy been undertaken to the commonwealth with regard to this?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (15:05): The independent advocacy process is being tested at the moment and there is a lot of feedback being received, including from South Australia. I think it would probably be premature to state what changes might be made to that particular system at this stage.
