Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Influenza Vaccinations Influenza Vaccinations The Hon. I.K. HUNTER Legislative Council Influenza Vaccinations The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (15:21): Supplementary arising from the minister's original answer: the minister said that notifications of influenza are delayed because of the manner of their lodgement of the notifications. Will the minister advise the chamber how many days or weeks behind are notifications to his health agency and subsequently to his office? The Hon. S.G. WADE Legislative Council Minister for Health and Wellbeing Influenza Vaccinations The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:21): Sorry, can you repeat the last bit again? The Hon. I.K. HUNTER Legislative Council The Hon. I.K. HUNTER: How many days or weeks behind are the notifications to the health agency and subsequently to the minister's office? The Hon. S.G. WADE Legislative Council The Hon. S.G. WADE: I think it is basically the same question I took on notice earlier. I would take the opportunity to stress— The Hon. K.J. Maher Legislative Council The Hon. K.J. Maher: No, it wasn't. Will you take it on notice? The Hon. S.G. WADE Legislative Council The Hon. S.G. WADE: I am happy to take it on notice, yes. I just want to assure the council that we didn't take a mallet to the computers. We inherited a non-IT-based notification program. In 16 years of Labor we didn't have an influenza vaccination program for under fives. We had basically the notification scheme that we have now.
