SA Health

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:55): My question is to the Premier. Can the Premier guarantee that, at the same time next year, there will not be any fewer nurses working in the Royal Adelaide Hospital or The Queen Elizabeth Hospital? With your leave, and that of the house, sir, I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr PICTON: On 8 November, the Premier told parliament, and I quote:

We made it very clear in the lead-up to the election that we wouldn't be cutting doctor and nurse numbers going forward.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:55): We stand by that commitment.
