          <by role="member" id="4342">The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:47):</by>  Thank you, Mr Speaker. This is a concerning allegation, which will certainly, without any doubt whatsoever, be very thoroughly investigated. I can't think of any reason why any health worker should be at risk of any physical harm inside a hospital. To me, and I am sure to all members of this place, that's an atrocious thing to consider. This is a matter that will be investigated very thoroughly. I hope that this person experiences a very speedy recovery. I am not in a position to provide more detail than that to the house at the moment, but if I can in future I would be willing to.</text>
