Palliative Care Service

MR BERRY: Another question was taken on notice, Madam Speaker, from Mr Cornwell. He asked me a question in relation to funding for the development of an integrated palliative care - - -

Mr Cornwell: That is right. The one you promised in the last budget.

Mr Humphries: He is upset.

MR BERRY: I am not in the least upset. I would just like to have the opportunity to answer the questions. Following a report on the need for a hospice in the ACT, $205,000 was made available for developing an integrated palliative care hospital service. The location of the hospice depends on the future uses of the Acton Peninsula site, in which the Commonwealth Government has a major interest. Recruitment has been delayed, pending a final decision on the siting of the hospice. It is proposed that the community nursing palliative care service will be co-located with the hospice in order to offer a more integrated service.
