The third one relates to one that I am most interested in as well, which is a cultural environment, if you like, from the Canberra Theatre Centre, down Ainslie Avenue, and then into City Walk. I would like to see, over the long term, that become something of a cultural precinct; that as developments occur the ground floor becomes more appropriate to cultural precincts, bookshops and the like. That one is still in its fairly early stages of development. I have been planning a public announcement in some considerable detail to apprise people of the other studies, and I will be doing that when we get it all together.

Mr Berry: Madam Speaker, I ask that further questions be placed on the notice paper.

Woden Valley Hospital - Bed Numbers

MR BERRY: Madam Speaker, during the course of questioning, I withdrew a remark in relation to Calvary Hospital. I would not like that withdrawal to create the impression that there was no expansion of bed numbers in Calvary Hospital as a result of hospital amalgamation, which, of course, there was. There was an expansion.

Mr Humphries: Why did you withdraw it?

MR BERRY: In relation to the timing that you are talking about, there was an expansion of beds in Calvary Hospital as a result of the overall amalgamation of the two hospitals. That is a known fact, and I would not like to create the impression that there was not.
