Hospital Waiting Times

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:31): Is the minister confirming to the house that this matter has not been raised with him whatsoever?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:31): Not to my recollection, but many people die in our hospitals every day. I am not informed of every single death that happens in our hospitals. I don't recall a particular death at Noarlunga in the circumstances you are describing being brought to my attention. I would have to check and double-check, but I certainly don't recall.
