Veterans' Mental Health Precinct

The Hon. S.G. WADE (15:15): My questions are for the acting minister for mental health and substance abuse.

1. How much will it cost to deliver health services to the veterans' mental health precinct to deal with comorbidities of inpatients?

2. Does the government agree with the estimate coming out of the models of care working group that these services will cost in excess of $6 million?

3. Is this 150 per cent increase in expenditure budgeted?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (15:15): I thank the honourable member for his most important question. I will undertake to take that question on notice and get an answer back to him.
