ROYAL PERTH HOSPITAL — ACCESS
933. Hon ED DERMER to the minister representing the Minister
for Transport:
I refer to the Minister for Mental Health's comment
on Thursday, 8 November, that ''Royal Perth Hospital, which is ideally
located for eastern suburbs residents, with a rail station at the hospital and
easy freeway access from all directions, has been open for 153 years.''
(1) Will the
Minister for Transport examine the means of access between McIver Railway
Station and Royal Perth Hospital, for the purpose of improving access for
patients, particularly those with impaired mobility?
(2) If no to
(1), why not?
(3) Will
appropriate signage be installed for the purpose of indicating to drivers which
exits to use to achieve the most timely access to Royal Perth Hospital?
(4) If no to
(3), why not?
