I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) At this point
in time, no; however, St John of God Hospital has requested that BreastScreen
WA find alternative accommodation.
(2) North
Metropolitan Health Service is currently looking for a new facility to ensure
the provision of contemporary models of care to the community.
(3) Yes.
(4) Yes.
I do not know whether that makes
sense, if it is North Metro. I am going to check that bit of the answer.
