Health Review

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:27): My question is to the Minister for Health. Will the minister's department's proposal for the $17.5 million upgrade to the second floor of the allied health building at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital to accommodate palliative care adequately address the overcrowding envisaged by the transfer of the Hampstead services to The Queen Elizabeth Hospital?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:27): We are working through these issues with the clinicians and, as soon as I am in a position to say that those issues have been worked through, I will be in a better position to come back to the house. At this stage, these are issues that are still being worked through.
