The answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:
The most recent information available is for the 15 operational GP Super Clinics at end September 2011.
Please note that the numbers reported by the Clinics for the workforce providing services at each operational clinic are presented as full time equivalents (FTE). The number of individuals comprising this workforce is substantially greater.
(a) As at end September 2011, there was a total of 93.8 FTE general practitioners providing services at the 15 operational clinics.
(b) and (c) As at end September 2011, the 15 operational clinics reported that a total of 108.0 FTE allied health professionals and nursing staff were providing a wide range of health care services for their local communities.
(d) Clinical practice placements for GP Registrars are of limited duration and reporting at a point in time will underreport the total number of GP Registrar placements. Of the 15 GP Super Clinics operational at the end of September 2011, seven GP Super Clinics had already provided one or more placements for GP Registrars. Additional Clinics are in the process of obtaining the requisite accreditation to host GP Registrars.
