FOOTPRINTS TO BETTER HEALTH
485. Hon DARREN WEST to the parliamentary
secretary representing the Minister for Health:
I will provide the number because
this question has been in the system for a little while; it is C300.
I refer to the Footprints to Better
Health program.
(1) Will the state government fund
the Footprints to Better Health program in 2014–15?
(2) Will the
government commit to allocating at least 12 months funding for the coming
financial year to ensure organisations can properly plan and implement these
important programs rather than the current practice of six-month funding
blocks?

AnswerView source ↗

of the question.

secretary representing the Minister for Health, I provide the following
response —
(1) Yes.
(2) Funding for
the Footprints to Better Health program is currently being considered as part
of the 2015–16 budget process.
