One of the things the government has now put in place is an executive director with responsibility for special projects. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Order! I call the Deputy Leader of the Opposition to order for the second time Mr D.A. TEMPLEMAN : The role of that person - Dr David Vickery - is to oversee residential care facilities such as those that have been highlighted in the Ombudsman’s report.
