Loxton Hospital Complex

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (14:41): Supplementary: has the money allocated for this work at the Loxton hospital already been allocated in the budget or is this new money?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:41): The government has made it clear that the stimulus funding is a pool forward of the assets sustainment program within the existing $140 million commitment to over 10 years. This is not unlike other programs, but the fact of the matter is that this money brought forward provides stimulus now rather than stimulus later.
