Select Committee on Transforming Health

The Hon. S.G. WADE (14:17): I bring up the revised interim report of the select committee.

Report received and ordered to be published.

The Hon. S.G. WADE: I seek leave to give the reasons for tabling this revised version.

Leave granted.

The Hon. S.G. WADE: As Chairperson of the select committee, concerns have been raised with me in relation to the wording of section 6. On reflection, the committee and I agree that it could be read as a reflection of the proceedings of the Veterans Advisory Council and the Veterans Health Advisory Council. That was not our intent.

I have met with the Veterans Advisory Council and know that management of conflict of interest is part of its practice. The committee's concern is that individuals need to be aware of conflicts of interest issues and their management, particularly under the formal process of the Public Sector (Honesty and Accountability) Act 1995. As Chairperson I apologise for the fact that the report was not as clear as it should have been. Accordingly, the committee has resolved to amend section 6 and recommendation 7 in its interim report, the report I have tabled.
