• “The national figures conclusively show that SJA has the most efficient ambulance service model in Australia and has saved this State substantial funds over the last century”.
• ”The figures show that Western Australian taxpayers per capita have paid about one quarter to a half that of tax payers in other states for the same level of service”,
• ”Indeed all of the indicators show that Western Australia is performing very highly in the comparative analysis”;
• ”Overall SJA is meeting its contractual requirements with DoH and in many areas is exceeding requirements”.
