CLARE DISTRICT HOSPITAL

Mr BROCK (Frome) (14:53): My question is to the Minister for Health and Ageing. Can the minister please advise: are there any moves by Country Health SA or the health department to reduce any of the current services at the Clare hospital and, in particular, Kara House with the palliative care ward?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health and Ageing, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Veterans' Affairs) (14:53): Certainly not that I have been advised, but I will double check with my department and get back to the member for Frome with a definitive answer.

The SPEAKER: I was so intrigued with the member for Hammond's supplementary, I now wish to hear it.
