My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Ageing, Senator Ludwig. In relation to the rural health facilities, I draw your attention to the failed New South Wales Labor government’s decision to close the Gulgong Hospital in central-west New South Wales after last year’s federal election because your state counterparts had not kept up the maintenance of that facility. There is state support for the construction of a multipurpose health service at Gulgong. Will the Gillard government provide its share of funding to make this project a reality?
