Thank you. The answer was encompassing a response to a question about funding for Tasmania. The federal government will redirect the money into other health programs in the Tasmanian health system. The $37.3 million included $16 million for the Launceston General Hospital. The government will spend the money on an integrated care centre at the Launceston General Hospital in patient and health related community transport and on an oncology service for the north and north-west. That is where the money will be directed. If I can provide any additional information in respect of that, I will seek that from Minister Roxon and provide a response to Senator Watson.
