House of Assembly Fifty-First Parliament, Second Session (51-2) 51 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Hammill House HAMMILL HOUSE Ms CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Leader of the Opposition HAMMILL HOUSE Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:06): Will the Minister for Health give the house an assurance that Hammill House, the aged care facility within the Port Pirie Regional Hospital, will meet federal accreditation standards as required in 2008? I am advised by the member for Frome that, in 2001, following extensive community consultation, $2 million was allocated to upgrade Hammill House to meet federal accreditation standards. The project was re-announced in the 2002-03 budget papers and then the minister announced that the government would complete the upgrade by December 2003. Four years later, while some work has been done, the facility is still well short of meeting the standards required by next year. The Hon. J.D. HILL House of Assembly Kaurna Minister for Health Minister for the Southern Suburbs Minister Assisting the Premier in the Arts HAMMILL HOUSE The Hon. J.D. HILL (Kaurna—Minister for Health, Minister for the Southern Suburbs, Minister Assisting the Premier in the Arts) (15:07): I made a statement in this house last year, I think, or maybe the year before, in relation to Hammill House and I provided the resource that had been committed by the former government once again. I think we followed up that commitment to the letter. I will get some further advice for the member, because I do not have all of the details in my memory at this stage. I am happy to get the advice for the member. It is, of course, a lot more complex than I think her question suggests.
