          <by role="member" id="3125">The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (15:04):</by>  My question is to the Minister for Health and Wellbeing. Will the minister advise what impact there was on patients as a result of the blackout at the Women's and Children's Hospital last night that reportedly resulted in lights out and operations cancelled?</text>

          <by role="member" id="3164">The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:04):</by>  Parts of the Women's and Children's Hospital lost power yesterday afternoon at, I am advised, about 5.23pm. The power involved was power supplied by SA Power Networks. I am advised that the impact was on the northern side of the campus. The hospital generator operated as planned. It took effect immediately, supplying power to the essential areas of the hospital. I am advised that there was no clinical risk and that there have been no adverse patient outcomes reported. As a precaution some patients were moved and some surgeries rescheduled.</text>
