CORONAVIRUS —
HOTEL QUARANTINE
132. Ms L. METTAM to the Minister for Health:
I
refer to the minister's commitment to implement by mid-May all the
recommendations of the Glossop Consultancy ventilation review regarding
COVID-19 spread in the Mercure hotel. Can the minister confirm whether all
seven recommendations have been implemented; and, if not, why not?
Mr R.H.
COOK replied:
First of all, the member for Vasse
has got it wrong again. We did not commit to implement all the recommendations
of the Glossop report; we committed to implement all the recommendations of the
Weeramanthri report, which is based on the Glossop report, but that is a small
matter of technicality.
In relation to the Mercure hotel, I can
confirm that we have not undertaken all that work because we are no longer in
the Mercure hotel.
