NEW CHILDREN'S
HOSPITAL — CAPACITY
720. Mr M. McGOWAN to the Premier:
I have a supplementary question. Has the Premier had any
offers of assistance or any discussions with members of the business community
about there being contributions to such an important additional floor to meet
future demand at the Perth ChildrenXXX ###XXXs
Hospital; and, if he has, what were the nature of those discussions?

AnswerView source ↗

I can say that Kerry Stokes raised it with me when I was at
Telethon. That is the only discussion of any significance that I can recall. We
discussed it, and I made it clear to Kerry that the decision has been made and
that is it. He is the only person I can think of right now who has ever raised
the issue of the additional floor.
