QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE
Woden Valley Hospital - Bed Numbers
MRS CARNELL: Madam Speaker, my question without notice is directed to the Minister for Health. On 16 June this year the Minister told the Assembly, in answer to my question about the numbers of available beds at Woden Valley Hospital:
... as we speak moves are afoot to open 24 additional beds ... These include three in surgical neurology, which will clearly have an impact on waiting lists; 11 in paediatrics; four in the high-dependency unit, an area which is very important for elective surgery waiting lists; four in oncology; and two dedicated to the bone marrow transplantation service ... That is 24.
