I refer to the Western Australia Health Clinical Services Framework 2010-2020 which states that by 2007-08 Bunbury Regional Hospital should have 105 multi-day beds and the country beds data on the Department of Health Website, which states that as at February 2011, the Bunbury Regional Hospital has 90 multi-day beds only, and ask -
(1) What action is being taken to provide the 15 additional multi-day beds which the Clinical Framework states are needed at Bunbury Regional Hospital?
(2) When will the 15 additional multi-day beds be provided?

(1 - 2) The Clinical Service Framework (CSF) underpins planning for future health service needs across the whole of the Western Australian health system including Bunbury Hospital. The content of the CSF is utilised to inform future infrastructure requirements. No capital funding has been allocated at this stage.
