Parliament: 40 Session: 1

WOMEN'S COMMUNITY HEALTH NETWORK WA

1164. Hon JACQUI BOYDELL to the parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Health:

I ask this question on behalf on Hon Colin Holt, who is absent on urgent parliamentary business.

I refer to WA Health's ''Western Australian Women's Health and Wellbeing Policy'', which was developed in 2019.

(1) What is the breakdown of funding provided to organisations that are involved in delivering community-based health services to women via the Women's Community Health Network WA for the following financial years —

(a) 2019–20; and

(b) 2020–21?

(2) Has additional funding been provided in the 2020–21 financial year to expand the community-based women's health service network; and, if so, in what locations?

(3) Will the minister please identify the relevant funding streams and whether funding is provided by other departments if applicable?

Hon ALANNA CLOHESY replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question.

(1) (a) A total of $6 762 984.10 was provided in 2019–20; and

(b) a total of $6 875 925.93 is allocated for 2020–21.

A breakdown of this funding by community-based organisations is provided in tabular form, and I seek leave to have it incorporated into Hansard.

Leave granted.
