COVID-19 Support

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (14:42): Supplementary: why is Treasury refusing Health requests for support under a pandemic?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (14:42): In relation to the provision of Health support in South Australia, whether it be vaccination clinics, whether it be quarantining facilities, whether it be extra resources for SA Health in terms of our hospitals, I can't think of any resource request that SA Health has made in South Australia that has not been responded to. This one, which requires potentially the expenditure of money in another state, has been one which I have not personally supported.
