Hospital Services
(Question No. 66)

Mr Humphries asked the Minister for Community Services and Health, upon notice, on 15 November 1989:

 Has the Minister received advice which suggests that (a) a hospital board that is an accountable body at a level closest to the health care providers is not likely to alleviate low morale in the hospital system and (b) the hospital board model is not in fact the best option for the efficient and responsible day to day administration of hospitals; if so, will the Minister make this advice available to Members of the Assembly.

Mr Berry: The answer to Mr Humphries' question is as follows:

The Government has received wide ranging advice from many quarters in canvassing the options for management structure for public hospitals.

Hospital Services
(Question No. 67)

Mr Humphries asked the Minister for Community Services and Health, upon notice, on 15 November 1989:

 Did the Minister state that the cost blowout in the hospitals is under control; if so, what exact measures does the Minister intend to take.

Mr Berry: The answer to Mr Humphries' question is as follows:

A Treasury Team is currently undertaking a review of the financial situation in Royal Canberra and Woden Valley Hospitals in conjunction with my Department. It is not appropriate to pre-empt the outcome of the review at this time.
