DISABILITY SERVICES

Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (15:05): My question is to the Minister for Disabilities. Can the minister update the house on the disability community visitor scheme outlined on page 24 of the supported residential facilities report the minister tabled yesterday, and can the minister tell the house when the disability community visitors will start work?

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (15:05): From recollection—and I will confirm this—the scheme has already commenced and it is working jointly with the Department of Health. I will confirm that for you.
