FOLLOWING revelations last week that ACT patient health records were sent to the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation without consent, Deputy Opposition Leader Jeremy Hanson will move a motion of no-confidence in Mental Health Minister Emma Davidson in the Assembly on Tuesday.

“Under this Minister we have seen the Dhulwa Mental Health Unit become unsafe for nurses and patients, requiring WorkSafe ACT to step in; no clarity on the death of a patient in a mental health facility; a report highlighting dysfunction and a toxic environment within her own office and now a serious breach of patient records,” Mr Hanson said.

“Ms Davidson has been aware that private health records were deliberately leaked to a union for some time and instead of fronting up and alerting the public, she remained silent until the breach was brought to light by the Canberra Liberals.

“This is a common pattern by Ms Davidson who has continually failed vulnerable Canberrans in her position as Mental Health Minister and has shown time and time again she is simply not up to the job.”
