Question Without Notice No. 339 asked in the Legislative Council on 7 April 2022 by Hon Donna Faragher

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

HEALTH — CHILD HEALTH NURSES — STAFF

339. Hon DONNA FARAGHER to the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Health:

I refer to the response to question on notice 241 provided on 13 October 2021 regarding child health nurses, which states —

WA Health funded a number of NGOs (predominately Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations) over $5 million to provide child health services from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2021.

(1) Has a new funding agreement been entered into with non-government organisations to provide child health nurse services?

(2) If yes to (1), what is the duration and total amount of funding that has been allocated to this new agreement?

(3) If no to (1), why not?

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

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

(1)–(3) Not applicable. The existing agreement applies until 31 December 2023.
