SA Pathology

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (15:23): So you will not rule out privatising regional SA Pathology services?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:23): The member seeks to put words in my mouth. What I will say is: we are committed to what we committed to in the budget, which is continuing to pursue efficiencies within SA Pathology. Both SA Medical Imaging and SA Pathology are pursuing efficiencies, and that work will continue, particularly in relation to SA Pathology, informed by outcomes of the PricewaterhouseCoopers report.
