My question is also to the Minister for Health and Ageing. Is the minister aware of reports that 30 maternity units in local hospitals have now been closed throughout rural and regional New South Wales? Is the minister further aware that the next hospital targeted for closure is Pambula Hospital, and local community anger is such that, on 13 November, 800 people attended a public meeting to save Pambula Hospital? One of the people who should have been there and who did not attend of course was the member for Eden-Monaro.
