          <by role="member" id="5244">The Hon. J.E. HANSON (15:18):</by>  My question is to the Minister for Health and Wellbeing. Will the minister advise whether an intensive care unit or a high observation unit is currently under construction for Modbury Hospital? If so, how do these units differ from the minister's promised high dependency unit, and will the cost of establishing either of those units be greater than the funding contained within the commitment the Liberal Party took to the last election?</text>

          <by role="member" id="3164">The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:19):</by>  As I have said to the council before, the government is working on enhancements to the services at Modbury Hospital, including physical support for critical care. In terms of the high dependency unit, we made a clear commitment at the election that we will be delivering a high dependency unit, and that remains our commitment.</text>
