          <by role="member" id="4847">Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (14:53):</by>  My question is again to the Minister for Health. Has there been a net increase of 12 ambulances to the SA Ambulance Service's fleet since the government began rolling out its Transforming Health plans?</text>

          <by role="member" id="627">The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:53):</by>  I will double-check, but let me make something quite clear: there's always been an understanding about the timing of that increase in the size of the ambulance service predicated on changes being made in our hospitals and reconfiguration happening. Once that happens, of course we will continue to expand, but an expansion is underway.</text>
        <text id="2016092839c57a99477a486980000523">I was just down at the Noarlunga station. The Noarlunga station, as I have previously said, was super-sized—super-sized—because there was additional funding being made available through Transforming Health. So, what was going to be a smaller station was able to be made larger because of the extra funding that this government is putting into our ambulance service because of Transforming Health—and what a spectacular station it is, too, at Noarlunga.</text>
