Disability Services

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:26): Supplementary arising from the original answer: given the minister has so many details on hand, can the minister please inform the chamber if the alleged offender has worked at other facilities or homes during the course of this year?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:26): My understanding is the individual has been a DHS employee employed within a unit that has worked across a range of sites. As I said, all of the relevant residents, families and the like have been notified very, very quickly. There has been an extensive communication campaign that took place across the service in light of these very serious allegations to ensure that everybody who was part of our services fully understood the situation, in accordance with the Debelle protocols.
