Opposition questions LGH emergency data

Another report on the congestion at the Launceston General Hospital’s Emergency Department has Labor again asking why the State Government isn’t making any headway.

Opposition Leader, Rebecca White has referred to the report’s finding that 10 per cent of patients presenting to emergency are still waiting after more than 30 hours.

The Premier, Jeremy Rockliff says that by building the primary health care sector presentations at hospitals can be reduced.
