Health and Hospital Care

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:33): A supplementary question: does the department keep its own statistics regarding misdiagnoses and incorrect medication and, if so, how do these compare with those put forward by SASMOA?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:33): There is a system that the department has whereby notifications can be made where an error or accident has happened. I don't have those with me, but I am happy to check.
