iv. A complete list of all staff rostered for morning, afternoon and night shift for each ward at CHS and CPHB has not been provided as it would be an unreasonable diversion of resources to complete this request.

v. Neither CPHB nor CHS report at the ward level. Performance information for each hospital is available via the ACT Public Health Services Quarterly Performance Report.

vi. Refer to response to Question v.

vii. CHS is unable report at the ward level and CPHB does not routinely collect data at ward level for staff recruitment. The ACT Health Directorate provided mental health ward level data for QON 830, however, to provide detailed staffing recruitment and separation information for each ward would be resource intensive and take key personnel away from their core functions which would be an unreasonable diversion of resources.

viii. Refer to response to Question vii. I also refer the Member to QON 834 which provides overall staff exits.

ix. CHS does not report Budget allocations at the Ward level. Please refer to Budget Paper C: https://www.treasury.act.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0004/1698934/2020-21-Budget-Statements-C.pdf

CPHB does not report budget allocation at the Ward level. National Weighted Activity Unit (NWAU) costs per patient episode are available through the Independent Hospital Pricing Authority (IHPA) benchmarking portal, the latest data publicly available is 2019-20.
