Subject : MINISTER SITTING ON REPORT WHILE AMBULANCE WAITING TIMES GET WORSE
Author : Jeremy Rockliff MP
A year after receiving a $72,000 review into ambulance services in Tasmania, the Health Minister is still sitting on the report.

This is another example of Green-Labor secrecy.

This taxpayer-funded report looks at the future needs and demand of ambulance services, and Tasmanians rightly deserve to know when, and if, the Minister is going to release it publically.

We already know that ambulance response times are increasing, and will get worse under Labor and the Greens' savage budget cuts.

By delaying the release of the report, Labor and the Greens are brushing aside the obvious concern that both ambulance demand and response times have increased to dangerous levels.

Hiding the report isn't going to address the issue, Minister.
