Mount Pleasant District Hospital

In reply to Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (21 September 2016).

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries): I have been advised:

In December, 2014, commonwealth government approval was given for nine additional aged-care licences at Mount Pleasant District Hospital. At the time of approval, all provisionally allocated aged-care places had two years to bring the licences online. The commonwealth has since extended all provisionally allocated places to four years. The new date to activate licences is by 19 December, 2018.
