What an extraordinary and completely baseless accusation.
Dr D.J. Honey : You are. You just said that you were
withholding information.
Ms A. SANDERSON : It is not based on any fact
whatsoever.
Dr D.J. Honey : You just said you were not giving the
information out. You just said it yourself.
Ms A. SANDERSON : Absolutely not. The Premier, the Chief Health
Officer and I have stood up day after day and provided information about
exposure sites. What a disgraceful contribution from the Leader of the Liberal
Party that somehow this government has been hiding information when we are
very, very clear —
Several members interjected.
Ms A. SANDERSON : That is that exactly what he said. It
is pathetic. You are pathetic. You are a perfect example of irrelevance and you
have done that to yourselves over the last three years. It is absolutely
appalling and it does a grave disservice to
the community of Western Australia, who, frankly, deserve better than the
opposition they have.
