Mental Health Services

Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (14:49): Given that the Correctional Services department has rejected the prototypes on soft restraints as provided by the New South Wales Corrective Services department, is the government still pursuing the use of soft restraints in clinical settings?

The Hon. L.A. VLAHOS (Taylor—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:49): I am not the minister for corrections. As I said, I would have to have discussions with my ministerial colleague in the other place.

Ms Chapman interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Deputy leader, what do I have to do or say to have the deputy leader obey the standing orders?

An honourable member interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Please, deputy leader, please. The member for Morialta.
