WA ADULT
CANCER CARE TASKFORCE REPORT
754. Mr R.H. COOK to the
Minister for Health:
I have a supplementary question. Why has the minister made a
habit of misleading Parliament to try to get out of difficult situations, as he
has done with this situation and also recently by claiming there was a
so-called apology from the Australian Medical Association, which also was not
true?

That is clearly not a supplementary.
Mr P.C. Tinley interjected.
The SPEAKER :
Member for Willagee, I call you to order for the first time. Minister, if you
do not think it is a supplementary question, do not answer the question; it is
quite simple.
Dr K.D. HAMES : Mr
Speaker, that was a point of view, not a supplementary question, and it is wrong.
