          <by role="member" id="6897">Ms PRATT (Frome) (15:29):</by>  My question is to the Minister for Health and Wellbeing. Given the minister committed to spending at least $100 million on country health, can he outline for all rural and regional voters when they can expect to see that investment made into all regional hospitals and GP retention?</text>

          <by role="member" id="4841">The Hon. C.J. PICTON (Kaurna—Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:29):</by>  We were very proud of our commitment to end the $662 million basketball stadium at the election and invest at least $100 million extra into country hospitals. We have outlined each and every one of those commitments. Each and every one of those commitments is going to be delivered in the upcoming state budget. We announced time frames in terms of those commitments, and we will be delivering on them.</text>
