PEEL HEALTH CAMPUS — PAEDIATRIC WARD
As a supplementary question, given that the local Peel community was a significant contributor to this paediatric ward, when can I tell my constituents that they can take their sick children to the Peel Health Campus and have them treated appropriately in the paediatric ward? Dr K.D. HAMES

I think the member failed to listen to what I said. As soon as the construction of that building is ticked off, it will be opened. I do not know when it will be ticked off; it will not be until all the construction requirements are concluded. This has nothing to do with the Department of Health, this government or the paediatric health unit; we are waiting for the final tick-off so that the building can be used. In the meantime, instead of criticising me all the time, the member for Mandurah should tell his constituents that they can go to the hospital and the get normal treatment in the hospital, the same as any other child can. Mr D.A. Templeman interjected. The SPEAKER : It is like world championship wrestling sometimes. I formally call the member for Mandurah for the second time.
