Federal Budget

Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (14:48): My supplementary is to the health minister. Is the federal health minister, Peter Dutton, correct when he says in today's Advertiser that commonwealth health funding in South Australia is growing by $332 million over the next four years?

The SPEAKER: Member for Morphett, it is a longstanding practice that members may not ask whether media reports are true. The deputy leader.

Dr McFETRIDGE: Can I rephrase the question then? Is his public statement true that federal health funding is increasing by $332 million?

The SPEAKER: I think we will leave it at that and go to the deputy leader.
