In reply to Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (18 June 2014).

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries):

1. I have been advised that, in the case of the move of patients from the old Royal Adelaide Hospital to the new Royal Adelaide Hospital once the state formally accepts the facility from SA Health Partnerships, the transition period for this is currently being planned.

2. I have been advised that the costing for the state's obligations for the transition process is currently being assessed.
