          <by role="member" id="2742">The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (15:15):</by>  The name of that particular provider is Sonder, which I understand is a national organisation. I have already responded to questions from another honourable member in terms of those particular beds that have been identified, in that the successful tenderer in the alliance is negotiating with existing providers going forward and we think those negotiations ought to be treated respectfully for them to negotiate the best outcome for vulnerable South Australians.</text>
