PICTON (Kaurna—Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:45):</by>  Obviously, there is a huge variety of different outpatient services that are provided at the Women's and Children's Health Network. I do not have an exhaustive list of all of those different services before me at the moment. I am very happy to take that question on notice. I would fully expect that antenatal services would be provided at the Women's and Children's Health Network.</text>
        <text id="202510295c312960d2734ae1b0000465">One thing I would say is that, in fact, long before we open the new hospital, what we are wanting to do is try to provide more of these services closer to people's homes as well, because one of the things that we hear a lot of feedback on is how difficult it is for people across metropolitan Adelaide, let alone peri-urban and regional areas, to all be able to come in to access the Women's and Children's Hospital site: car parking, transport, etc. So if we can provide a number of those services, where it is appropriate and safe to do so, in locations closer to people's homes as well, then that is something that certainly we think will provide benefit for patients, families and ultimately the broader health system as well.</text>
