          <by role="member" id="1812">The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier) (14:08):</by>  The truth is that all of our services emerge and change over time. We always take the best advice from our clinicians about how they are constructed at any point in history, so these will be a matter for the clinicians. The fundamental commitment of cardiac services remaining at The QEH, including the cath lab, is one that we have made, and we are very happy to have it confirmed over and over again by the bleating of those opposite.</text>
