          <by role="member" id="5412">The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:55):</by>  Supplementary: given the outstanding results of the community paramedic program, both in Robe and in Ceduna—and I would also like to pay tribute to Dr David Senior in Robe and Lucindale and the excellent work he does—why won't the minister commit funding that would allow greater certainty rather than the short periods that he is referring to, something such as four-year or five-year funding?</text>

          <by role="member" id="3164">The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:56):</by>  I think one of the factors here is the fact that this is co-funded. I might caution my words there by saying my understanding is both the Ceduna and the Robe projects are partnership funding with the Country SA PHN, I think is what they call themselves. I will seek clarification on the south coast one, but my understanding is the south coast pilot is a pilot.</text>
