Disability Services

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:25): Supplementary: in the minister's response, is she saying that she can give this assurance that every shift is covered in every state-run care facility?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:25): I am sure that the department has all of these matters adequately covered. We do have a large number of employees employed within our accommodation services, and we have a much better rostering system than in the past. There is occasional need to use agency staff, but I am very confident that our services are meeting much higher quality standards than they ever have in the past.
