Alexandra District Health

Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) presented a petition bearing 3008 signatures:

The petition of the people of the Shire of Murrindindi, and of the State of Victoria, alerts the house that the current powers and responsibilities of the Alexandra District Health’s Board of Directors are under review by a secretive “Expert Advisory Committee” of the Victorian Department of Health. We respectfully request that the findings of this committee be released to the public. We also request that any proposed Health Services Plan be subject to genuine public consultation. We further request the Assembly that the powers and responsibilities and authorities remain with the Alexandra District Health Board and no amalgamation take place.

Ordered that petition be considered tomorrow.
