Aboriginal Visitors Scheme

The Hon. C. BONAROS (15:20): Further supplementary: can the minister point to any other instance concerning COVID-19 or otherwise in which an ambulance would be called but not attend an incident such as the one that was witnessed last night?

The PRESIDENT: Minister, you can answer it, but I don't see how that came from the original answer.

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:21): If it pleases the council, I will answer. I think it's important to make the point that SAPOL and SAAS would liaise with one another constantly in responding to incidents. Sometimes it would not be unusual for SAPOL to advise that SAAS is not required, and likewise for SAAS to advise that SAPOL is not required. In terms of the circumstances of last night and this morning, as I said, I will make sure that the concerns raised by both honourable members are referred to SAPOL so that they can be considered in the context of the investigation.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Ms Bourke.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! I can't hear, just wait.

The Hon. E.S. Bourke: I'm glad you asked, because this one's just for you, John.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Ms Bourke, just ask the question—ignore interjections.

The Hon. J.S.L. Dawkins interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Mr Dawkins!

The Hon. E.S. Bourke: That's all right, you can help answer this one, John.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Ms Bourke, do you want the call or not?

The Hon. E.S. Bourke: Yes, thank you.

The PRESIDENT: Right, let's do it.
