Central Adelaide Local Health Network Legal Advice

In reply to the Hon. J.E. HANSON (12 February 2019).

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing): I have been advised:

In September 2018, approval was provided by the Crown Solicitor's Office (CSO) under Treasurer's Instruction 10 for Central Adelaide Local Health Network (CALHN) to engage Arnold Bloch Leibler (ABL) and EMA Legal to provide legal advice to CALHN for the implementation of CALHN's Organisational and Financial Recovery Plan.

In partnership, ABL and EMA Legal are providing expert and specialised legal advice in relation to:

Strategic human resources / industrial relations management;

Best practice regulatory compliance;

Workplace investigations;

Executive remuneration and benefits; and

Independent contractors and outsourcing.

Part of ABL's practice involves advising public and private companies on a broad range of employment matters, including employment disputes, strategic employee engagement, complex restructures and employment issues in commercial transactions.

As at Friday 24 May CALHN has paid ABL $275,561 and EMA Legal $113,633.
