HOSPITALS — REGIONAL
— SAFETY
136. Hon MARTIN ALDRIDGE to the parliamentary secretary
representing the Minister for Health:
I refer to Legislative Council
question without notice 1291 about measures to stop hospital violence and
aggression.
(1) Can the
minister please provide a breakdown, by site, of the $2.8 million under ''Capital
Funding'' and the $2.1 million under ''Recurrent Funding''
allocated to the WA Country Health Service?
(2) How many security staff, by FTE,
have been approved to each of the identified WACHS sites?
(3) How much has been allocated to
CCTV at each of the identified WACHS sites?
Hon ALANNA
CLOHESY replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question. I note this information is current from when the
question was asked on Thursday, 13 February.
(1) The capital
funding allocation by site, noting that some allocations are across groups of
facilities, with individual site allocations to be determined, is in tabular
form with a dollar value for each site. I seek leave to have this part of the
question incorporated into Hansard.
Leave granted.
