Ambulance Ramping

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:03): My question is to the Premier. Does the Premier agree with the Salaried Medical Officers Association that, following his budget yesterday, we will continue to see ambulance ramping? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr MALINAUSKAS: The Salaried Medical Officers Association's Bernadette Mulholland said on radio FIVEaa this morning, and I quote:

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:04): No.
