I thank the honourable member for
some notice of this question. In 2015, the median waiting time—which is
the standard measure utilised nationally—for a child aged zero to 16
years to get an appointment with a publicly-funded ear, nose and throat
specialist in the Perth metropolitan area was 68 days.
