54345 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Associate Minister of Health

54345 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Associate Minister of Health: Does the Minister stand by her statement “As to the date it was received, I don’t know. It was, as I’ve said, a hard copy compilation of information that was handed…”, if so, did the Minister’s Office receive the information after she received her Ministerial warrant?

Hon Casey Costello: I have been clear with the Member in the House that I received a wide range of background information relevant to my portfolios over the first few weeks after receiving my warrant on 27 November 2023. The information was received as hard copy documents and it is not possible to state with any certainty what date any given piece of information was received, nor is it possible to categorically state the source or author(s) of all the information that was received on my desk.
