Paul EDBROOKE (Frankston) (09:46): There is no way the member for Narracan beat that member. I want to put on record what a great day I had with the Frankston council councillors and executive team, who came and toured the new Frankston Hospital redevelopment. Although walking up and down 12 flights of stairs was a bit of a workout – I did not need to go to the gym that day – looking at what has been thoroughly thought out and provided for the Frankston community and that whole catchment of the south-east and the peninsula is quite amazing. To see the looks on some of our councillors’ faces about how big this project is and what it means to their community was simply amazing, and I think they are very much on board. The helipad has now been finished, and we will have helicopter operations, with the Helicopter Emergency Medical Service or Helimed I think coming in and doing some training very soon. That is another milestone that has been completed in this project.
