(1) When was it discovered that the available bed numbers in Canberra public hospitals reported in 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 were incorrect, given that the number of available beds in Canberra hospitals were reported in answer to Question on Notice No 412, dated 6 May 2015, which corrected data listed in the 2013-14 ACT Health annual report and the ACT Health December 2014 quarterly report as follows:
|
6 May 2015 Available beds |
December 2014 Available beds | |
|
(a) 2007-08 |
830 |
851 |
|
(b) 2008-09 |
876 |
875 |
|
