(c) What was the cost of defending these claims? (d) How much was paid to successful claimants for the period 1 January 2012 to date?

Answer— The NSW Police Force has advised me:(1) 786 as at 30 November 2012.(2) 211 as at 30 November 2012.(3) The use of Tasers on any occasion is based on an assessment of the subject and the operational nature

of the incident, including the risk to the alleged offender, the public and officers. Police have strict Standard Operating Procedures on the use of Tasers by frontline officers as well as comprehensive training which are regularly reviewed and updated by the NSW Police Force. The NSW Police Force also has extensive oversight procedures for Taser usage.

or partially covered by the finger of the police officer deploying the Taser. There can also be a delay of several seconds before the Tasercam begins to record due to initial battery power being delivered to the Taser, and momentary interruptions to Tasercam recording may occur when the Taser is fired.

(7) Five civil claims have been lodged in 2012 as at 30 November 2012. All these claims are ongoing.

*2901 TOURISM, MAJOR EVENTS, HOSPITALITY AND RACING—LIQUOR LEGISLATION REVIEWS—Dr Kaye asked the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Hunter, and Vice-President of the Executive Council representing the Minister for Tourism, Major Events, Hospitality and Racing, and Minister for the Arts—

(1) Are Schedule 4 conditions that apply to the five most violent premises in Newcastle less onerous than those imposed in 2008 for the same premises?

Answer— There are similarities between the conditions imposed on Level 1 venues under the violent venues scheme in schedule 4 of the Liquor Act 2007 and those conditions imposed on 14 Newcastle licensed venues by the former Liquor Administration Board in 2008.Both sets of conditions provide for lockouts, drink restrictions, the cessation of alcohol sales 30 minutes prior to closing and a four drink purchase limit.However, there are also differences between the conditions. For instance, the violent venues scheme prohibits the use of glass after midnight, while no such prohibition applies under the conditions imposed by the former Liquor Administration Board.Under the Board imposed conditions, venues are required to implement a plan of management and engage an RSA marshal after 11pm. This is not required under the violent venues scheme.Where a Newcastle licensed premise that is subject to the 2008 licence conditions is also prescribed as a declared premises under schedule 4 of the Liquor Act 2007, the licensee must comply with both sets of conditions.

*2902 TOURISM, MAJOR EVENTS, HOSPITALITY AND RACING—REVIEW OF THE NSW LIQUOR ACT—Dr Kaye asked the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Hunter, and Vice-President of the Executive Council representing the Minister for Tourism, Major Events, Hospitality and Racing, and Minister for the Arts—

determine whether its policy objectives are still valid and whether the terms of the Act are still appropriate for securing those objectives.The review must be undertaken in 2013, with a report on the review required to be tabled in

*2903 TOURISM, MAJOR EVENTS, HOSPITALITY AND RACING—LIQUOUR LEGISLATION REVIEWS—Dr Kaye asked the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Hunter, and Vice-President of the Executive Council representing the Minister for Tourism, Major Events, Hospitality and Racing, and Minister for the Arts—

The Minister for Police and Emergency Services indicated that the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing is examining the operation of five Newcastle venues to ascertain if any additional action is required.(1) Will the community and surrounding residents have an opportunity to provide input into this

examination?(2) Do the examinations involve or result in the watering down of the section 104 conditions?(3) Will copies of the results of the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing examination be made available

before any changes are undertaken?

Answer— (1) A review of the operation of five Newcastle hotels that are subject to the violent venues scheme was

undertaken earlier this year as part of compliance action taken by the NSW Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing.This type of compliance activity does not involve community input.That review was undertaken as part of ongoing efforts by the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing to help improve compliance by Newcastle's declared premises and to inform future compliance strategies in the region.

(2) The review does not involve any variation to, or lessening of, the conditions applying to Newcastle premises that were imposed by the former Liquor Administration Board in 2008.

(3) Given the secrecy provisions of the liquor and gaming machine laws, details of this internal review were not released. These secrecy provisions prohibit information obtained by officers excercising their statutory funtions from being divulged to others, except in limited circumstances.

(2) For each position within the Department of Education and Communities schools portfolio in the head and regional offices as at 1 July 2011: (a) Was the position funded under a National Partnership?(b) Had the position been vacant for more than 3 months at 1 July 2011?(c) Had the position been filled by a casual or acting appointee for more than 3 months at 1 July

2011?

(3) For each position within the Department of Education and Communities schools portfolio in the head and regional offices as at 1 July 2012: (a) Was the position funded under a National Partnership?(b) Had the position been vacant for more than 3 months at 1 July 2012?(c) Had the position been filled by a casual or acting appointee for more than 3 months at 1 July

2012?

Answer— (1) There is no chart that provides this information.

However, data sourced from the Department of Education and Communities' Personnel System on 28 June 2011 is as follows: As at 1 July 2011 the schools portfolio had the following number of established positions: State Office: 683.19 positions (full-time equivalent) Regional Offices: 843.58 positions (full-time equivalent).

Answer—

3026Legislative Council Questions and Answers No. 123— Tuesday 19 February 2013

Page 263: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS - Parliament of NSW€¦ · Regional Algal Coordination Committee, the NSW Office of Water and Sydney Catchment Authority in monitoring and dealing with blue-green

(1) Conditions were imposed by the former Liquor Administration Board on a number of late trading Newcastle venues in March 2008. There has been a reduction in a number of areas of alcohol-related crime in Newcastle in the corresponding period.There have however been a number of additional significant regulatory measures introduced since 2008 that have also contributed to the reduction of alcohol-related crime in Newcastle and elsewhere across NSW.This enables the commencement of a new Liquor Act in July 2008 that enables targeted action to be taken against problem premises, the introduction of the violent venues scheme, which applies similar conditions to those imposed on Newcastle venues, and the Three Strikes disciplinary scheme in January 2012.These regulatory measures enable targeted action to be taken swiftly to address serious problems associated with the operation of a venue.In addition, further measures were applied to venues in Newcastle and Hamilton under the local Precinct Liquor Accord in 2010. I am advised this included participation by venue staff in responsible service of alcohol workshops conducted by the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing the installation of ID scanners in venues.

*2913 HEALTHY LIFESTYLES, MENTAL HEALTH—HOSPITAL BEDS FOR PATEINTS WITH AN EATING DISORDER—Dr Kaye asked the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Hunter, and Vice-President of the Executive Council representing the Minister for Mental Health, Minister for Healthy Lifestyles, and Minister for Western New South Wales—

(1)(a) How many adult beds are available to patients requiring specialised treatment for eating

disorders?(b) Where are these beds located?(c) Please provide a measure of the occupancy rate for each.

(2) Have people suffering from eating disorders presenting to emergency departments in New South Wales public hospitals been told that they must have a serious condition before they are allowed to access specialised treatment?

(3) What steps are being taken to ensure that there are sufficient adult beds in New South Wales public hospitals for patients requiring specialised treatment for eating disorders?

Answer— I am advised:(1) (to 3.) Local Health Districts provide health services through access to either specialist or generalist

health inpatient treatment based on clinical need, including treatment for adults with eating disorders. Adult patients with eating disorders may use any of a number of general medical beds. In addition, there are currently adult specialist eating disorder services located at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and Westmead Hostpital.Eating disorder beds are included in overall medical or mental health bed occupancy reports. As such, information on occupancy by adult patients with eating disorders is not held centrally.The NSW Government is currently exploring options for further enhancement of eating disorder services.

*2914 HEALTH—COMMUNITY TREATMENT ORDER FOR "MR P"—Dr Kaye asked the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Hunter, and Vice-President of the Executive Council representing the Minister for Health, and Minister for Medical Research—

Page 264: QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS - Parliament of NSW€¦ · Regional Algal Coordination Committee, the NSW Office of Water and Sydney Catchment Authority in monitoring and dealing with blue-green

(2) In its determination of CTOs, does the MHRT give consideration to the location in which the patient who has been issued a CTO will be residing after their release and whether the location will be conducive to their recovery, regardless of whether it is a state or federal jurisdiction?

(3) What are the formal pathways for communication concerning the administration of the CTO for "Mr P" between Department of Health staff and International Health and Medical Services (IHMS) staff in Villawood?

(4)(a) Does the NSW Ministry of Health provide any training to IHMS staff at Villawood detention

centre concerning the administration of a NSW Health CTO?(b) If not, why not?

(5)(a) Has the Minister for Health made any representations to the Federal Minister for Immigration

and Citizenship, the Honourable Chris Bowen MP, or his department concerning the treatment of "Mr P" in Villawood?

(b) If not, why not?

Answer— I am advised by the Minister for Health and Minister for Medical Research:(1) (to 5.) The person in question is an immigration detainee and his detention is a matter for the

Commonwealth Government.The Mental Health Review Tribunal's authority to make a community treatment order that would be implemented in an immigration detention centre was upheld in a decision by the Supreme Court on 17 August 2012 in this matter.This person is currently receiving appropriate mental health treatment from the Bankstown-Lidcombe Mental Health Service. The Bankstown-Lidcombe Mental Health Service provides advice to International Health and Medical Services regarding relevant requirements for compulsory treatment and the nature of this person's obligations under the community treatment order.The Ministry for Health is not specifically responsible for training International Health and Medical Services staff at Villawood.The Ministry of Health is not aware of any concerns which would warrant representations being made to the Federal Minister.

*2915 MENTAL HEALTH—COMMUNITY TREATMENT ORDER FOR "MR P"—Dr Kaye asked the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, Minister for the Hunter, and Vice-President of the Executive Council representing the Minister for Mental Health, Minister for Healthy Lifestyles, and Minister for Western New South Wales—

*2916 EDUCATION—STAFF EMPLOYED—BLUE HAVEN PUBLIC SCHOOL, BLUE HAVEN—Mr Donnelly asked the Minister for Roads and Ports representing the Minister for Education—

(1) Regarding Blue Haven Public School, Blue Haven, as at 22 November 2012, how many full-time equivalent staff are employed and what is their grade or classification?

Answer— Conducting the research necessary to provide this information would substantially and unreasonably divert the resources of the Department of Education and Communities away from the exercise of its core functions.I recommend that the Member look at the MySchool website, and the Annual Report that the school is required to produce at the conclusion of each school year, which is placed on the school's website.

*2917 EDUCATION—STAFF EMPLOYED—OURIMBAH TAFE, OURIMBAH—Mr Donnelly asked the Minister for Roads and Ports representing the Minister for Education—

(1) Regarding Ourimbah TAFE, Ourimbah, as at 22 November 2012, how many full-time equivalent staff are employed and what is their grade or classification?

Answer— As at 22 November 2012 there were 89.55 full-time equivalent staff employed at Ourimbah TAFE, Ourimbah. The classifications are as follows:

• 0.43 full-time equivalent staff - Advanced Child Care Worker• 3.16 full-time equivalent staff - Class Preparation Assistant• 2.85 full-time equivalent staff - Clerk• 0.32 full-time equivalent staff - General Assistant⁄Tool store person• 0.57 full-time equivalent staff - Tool store person• 0.84 full-time equivalent staff - Stores Officer• 0.73 full-time equivalent staff - Technical Officer Scientific• 71.65 full-time equivalent staff - Teacher• 9.00 full-time equivalent staff - Head Teacher

There were also six Notetakers employed at Ourimbah TAFE.

(1) In the period 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012, how many pregnancy terminations were conducted involving a foetus with a gestation period of 25 weeks or more in Armidale Hospital?

Answer— I am advised by the Minister for Health and Minister for Medical Research:-The term "Medical Abortion" in the NSW Ministry of Health's Admitted Patient Data Collection covers procedures undertaken for legal or therapeutic reasons which may include medical and psychiatric reasons and may include the induction of labour to deliver a live foetus or one that may have died days or weeks before the procedure.Procedures conducted after 25 weeks gestation to facilitate expulsion of the fetus are few in number and can be undertaken for reasons such as spontaneous pre-term labour, induction of labour, or caesarean section for severe maternal distress, or induction of labour or caesarean section for severe fetal disease or death.All medical patients admitted to public hospitals in Australia have information in their medical record coded by clinical coders. Of note clinicians often record the term "termination of pregnancy" in the clinical record in a temporal sense, as in the period of pregnancy must end at this point in time. This may result in this procedure code being used despite there being a live birth.As such, any data collected does not necessarily reflect terminations of pregnancy in the sense in which the term may be commonly used in the community.Any patient cared for within the NSW public health system expects that their privacy is protected. By identifying a hospital where there were less than five procedures coded as a termination of pregnancy after 25 weeks, particularly if there was only one instance, though not directly identifying a person, could reveal sensitive health information about a person and make it public without that person's consent. In this regard, no public hospital conducted five or more such procedures in the relevant period.
