Transforming Health

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:23): The minister says 'active discussions' and in the near future the resolution of that location. How long do you think that will be? Is it one week, one month, six months, a year? When do you expect to have a resolution?

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:23): We would hope to have it done as soon as possible. I am reluctant—I am sure the honourable member can appreciate this—to stipulate a time line, that we hope to have it done in seven days and then that unnecessarily or inappropriately inflates expectations. If I receive advice that puts a finite time line to it, then I am more than happy to share that information publicly, but I do not have that as it stands. What I can say is that there are a number of people working incredibly hard so that this can be resolved.
