[ozmidwifery] Labours commitment to PI insurance (X posted! sorry!)

[Callum & Kirsten]

Hi everyone,   I just had a call from the Labour Candidate for Solomon, up here in the NT in reply to a letter i sent regarding Professional indemnity insurance for midwives in the NT.   He ASSURES me that he  has talked to several people regarding the issue, and that labour is COMMITTED (exact words) to taking the issue of PI insurance to the Health ministers State and Federal conference, when it next occurs. This will be done by Juila Gilliard and it will focused on providing solutions to the lack of PI insurance country wide, not just for the NT.    He sounded sincere and i really think they will deliver for midwives.     Kirsten Darwin.    ~~~start life with a midwife~~~
