Hospital Beds

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:46): Supplementary arising directly from the minister's answer: is he therefore confident that there will be 300 extra beds, if we are expected to need that number, as was revealed by the chief executive earlier this week?

The PRESIDENT: I am not quite sure where that came from from the minister's answer.

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:46): I am very happy to say that I am confident that we will deliver the capacity that the South Australian health system needs to respond to whatever COVID brings.
