MS GALLAGHER: It did not say that there was not coordination. It says that that coordination needs to be improved. That is what we are determined to improve. There can be better coordination across services at the AMC in relation to corrections health. ACT Health, Corrections and non-government agencies will have their own views around coordination and the extent that it exists but one thing I think we can all agree on is that, if there are problems identified in coordination of services, then we work on making that better.

MR HANSON: A supplementary, Mr Speaker.

MR SPEAKER: Yes, Mr Hanson.

MR HANSON: Minister, will you accept responsibility for the lack of leadership and governance at the AMC and, if not, who will?

MS GALLAGHER: The government is the only one providing leadership—and I would say the Greens. In terms of this Assembly, in terms of leadership, in terms of tackling issues, in terms of being honest, in terms of actually fronting up, having a view and actually looking at evidence and then taking a position based on that evidence, there are leaders in this place, but there are not any on that side of the chamber.

MS BRESNAN: Supplementary?

Opposition members interjecting—

MR SPEAKER: Yes, Ms Bresnan.

Opposition members interjecting—

MR SPEAKER: Order! Ms Bresnan has the floor.

MS BRESNAN: Thank you, Mr Speaker.

Mr Hanson interjecting—

MS BRESNAN: Minister, will you be having any discussions with the Liberal Premier Barry O’Farrell, who has actually come out in support of an NSP program.

Mr Hanson: That is not true.

Members interjecting—

MR SPEAKER: Order! Thank you.

Members interjecting—
