Chemotherapy Treatment Error

The Hon. S.G. WADE (14:40): Supplementary: will the minister ensure that his counsel stops acting to support moves to exclude the Knox case from the Coroner's consideration?

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:40): I am not going to be making a running commentary on the coronial inquest, for obvious reasons. It is an independent matter before an independent court. I will uphold the principles of not providing a running commentary on that. What I do look forward to is the coronial inquiry being completed in due course and, if and as appropriate, it informing government policy going forward.
