Enough being spent on indigenous health

Source: AAP | Published: Wednesday April 19, 2:56 PM 

Federal Health Minister Dr Michael Wooldridge today rejected a call from
Australian of the Year Sir Gustav Nossal to spend more on
Aboriginal health.

Sir Gustav Nossal, who is the deputy chair of Council for Aboriginal
Reconciliation, yesterday called for an extra $20 million to be spent
each year on indigenous health.

'Well, we're actually spending more than that,' Dr Wooldridge said. 

'The amount of money we're spending on indigenous health has gone up
over 50 per cent since we've been in government,' Dr
Wooldridge said.

Dr Wooldridge said the federal government's increased spending had
already improved Aboriginal health.
