Southern Metropolitan Region
Georgie CROZIER (Southern Metropolitan) (13:00): (68) My constituency question is directed to the Minister for Health, and it is in relation to the very sad circumstances around the death of Annie Moylan. Dr Brian Moylan and his wife Marg have spoken to me on several occasions, and I have met with them about the circumstances of Annie’s death, which have been well highlighted in the media today. I note the Premier has come out today and apologised and said there was an administrative error, that he did not respond to their requests, that the Minister for Health had not responded to their requests, and the Premier said, ‘There are no excuses, but you know, we were in caretaker. I understand there were caretaker issues and things, but I’m not here to make excuses.’ But the point is that this has been going on for years, and the department has known about the issue. The question I really want to ask is: what investigations have been undertaken on this issue given that it has been well known within the department for years?
