The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:29): Supplementary arising from the original answer where the minister referred to—

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Just hang on, the honourable Leader of the Opposition. I would like to be able to hear your supplementary so that I can rule as to whether it is appropriate, and I can't with your backbench shouting over the top. Please ask your supplementary question.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: Thank you, Mr President. A supplementary question relating to the original answer where the minister outlined the 12.1 FTEs who accepted voluntary separation packages: can the minister outline, of the 12.1, how many were doctors and how many were nurses?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:30): The advice I have been given is that it did not include any front-line staff and I assume, therefore, that it meant there were no doctors and nurses. I am happy to check to make sure that I have properly understood the information I have been given.
