COVID-19 Media

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:50): A supplementary arising from the original answer: has your department, minister, raised any concerns with you along the lines that the media have raised that you are now politicising the pandemic response by conflating party political ads with important health information?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:50): It might surprise you, but my department has not raised concerns with me that I'm politicising the pandemic. They have noticed a pandemic exists.
