Elective Surgery

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (15:12): Supplementary arising from the answer: can the minister confirm that he said during his answer that some patients may be contacted to have their surgeries cancelled?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:12): What I advise the house is that patients should continue to prepare for their elective surgeries as normal unless specifically contacted by the hospital.
