Hospital Beds

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (14:40): If no beds are closing and the minister would prefer to use the word 'stand-by', can he please confirm to the chamber when the 60 beds will not be on stand-by, and what is the approval process for using the beds on stand-by?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:40): The 60 beds will no longer be on stand-by when they are fully occupied; that is, when they are needed.
