UNIVERSAL CHILD HEALTH CHECKS
I refer to the findings of the Auditor General in his November 2010 report on universal child health checks, which revealed that only 30 per cent of children in 2009 had received their check at 18 months of age. In the calendar year 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2010, which of the metropolitan child health clinics did not provide any checks for 18-month-old children, which provided at least 50 per cent of their checks for 18-month-old children and which provided any checks after the check at 18 months of age?
