Coronial Inquests

In reply to Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (30 July 2021). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing): I have been advised:

1. SA Ambulance Service (SAAS) must report every death they attend to SA Police who are an agent to the State Coroner. How many cases are currently being investigated is a question for the Coroner.

2. Ramping has not been identified as the direct cause of death in the past financial year.
