(1)-(2) I am not sure that the second part of the question is a supplementary question. I will not ask the Speaker to rule on that. I have no idea what was discussed with the board members. It is a decision made in terms of the issue when it was tabled this morning. As with all hospitals at the moment, the Government is looking at the general provision of health services to ensure that they can supply the required services. The hospitals at Harvey and Yarloop are part of the reform process. Their boards were included. I am sure that the hospitals will have proper discussions with the board when it meets in the future.
