Health Workforce

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (14:55): My question is to the Minister for Health and Wellbeing. Given that the Treasurer has previously advised that voluntary redundancies will only be used in circumstances where someone is surplus to requirements, will the minister outline which doctors and nurses he considers surplus to requirements?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:56): I don't know what the honourable member is referring to. First of all, if the honourable member wants to ask the Treasurer a question in relation to comments he has made in the past then make the question to the Treasurer. In relation to my portfolio, the separation processes that are available at the moment are voluntary.
