KALGOORLIE HEALTH CAMPUS — MRI MACHINE
103. Hon
ROBIN SCOTT to the minister representing the Minister for Health:
When the government announced in
April 2019 that it would construct an MRI suite to service the goldfields, it was estimated that its construction would take 30
months to complete. I note that the minister's 30-month time frame is due to expire in October this year.
(1) Can the people of the
goldfields expect to be able to access MRI services from October?
(2) If not, why not?
(3) How much
longer will the minister make the people of the goldfields wait for this vital
piece of medical equipment?
