1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: Three sixty with Katie Wolf.

2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 2: Join the conversation with Katie Wolf.

3
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 3: You are our eyes and ears in the Territory mixed

4
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 3: one oh four point nine. Okay, we are due to

5
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 3: catch up with the Deputy Opposition leader Jared Mayley in

6
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 3: just a moment. But I know that so many of

7
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,240
Speaker 3: you are in the line out there at Marra this morning,

8
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 3: and Ian joins me alive from that line, I believe,

9
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 3: good morning to you.

10
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 2: Ian, Good morning.

11
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 3: How's it going out there? Mice?

12
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 2: It's pretty good. Look, we've been out here for about

13
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 2: two hours now. We've got an appointment scheduled and the

14
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 2: sidelineer's off into a car park at the Rugby ground

15
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 2: and they're going to ring us as it gets near

16
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 2: our appointment time to come forward. But what I'm ringing

17
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 2: about is there's a lot of people wandering around out

18
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: here looking for toilets, and there are Dinny. We've seen

19
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 2: a couple of guys sort of stand behind some very

20
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: skinny threes out are here. But the girls have got

21
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 2: real problems out here. I just think it would be

22
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: a good idea if to put a few porterloos out here.

23
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 3: Ian, that is a very very good idea, and your

24
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 3: spot on, mate. We need to make sure that there

25
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 3: are provisions out there, that there is a toilet out there.

26
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 3: I guess the problem's going to be though as well,

27
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 3: is you know, when it comes to that isolating and

28
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 3: then there being a public toilet, whether they're going to

29
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 3: be able to I really don't know.

30
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 2: Well, there's going to be some wet car seats around.

31
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: I think.

32
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to be in one of those lines. Ian.

33
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 3: What time was your appointment booked for?

34
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 2: We're not actually scheduled to go in until twelve o'clock,

35
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 2: right pretty early. Have to see in the line yesterday,

36
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 2: I thinking it might take us a while to get

37
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 2: around there. They seem to have be a bit better

38
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 2: organized this morning.

39
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, well that is good to hear. Good on

40
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 3: you guys. And were you at one of those contact sites, Ian,

41
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 3: We were.

42
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: We were at the Gateway shopping Center at their relevant times. Yeah.

43
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 3: Oh, and I think that you know, there's so many

44
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: people who are concerned, and you know, while I've obviously

45
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: been a bit critical or certainly asking questions of the

46
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 3: minister this morning about those wait times and that kind

47
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 3: of thing, I am heartened to see that the way

48
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 3: that the territories just pulled together and everybody who believes

49
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 3: that they do need to get tested is turned up

50
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 3: and they're doing the right thing. By the sounds of it.

51
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: My appointment.

52
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,080

Speaker 3: line this morning. Send us a message if you want

Speaker 3: let us know what's going on. If you've got something

66
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 3: that you want to have a quick chat to us about,

67
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,200

68
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 3: while you are in what is said to be an

69
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 3: awfully long line this morning and a long wait. Now

70
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 3: joining us on the line is the Deputy opposition leader,

71
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 3: Jared Mainly. Good morning, to you, Jared.

72
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: Good morning, Katie, Good morning listeners.

73
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: Mate. Obviously a lot of talk this morning about the

74
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 3: testing that's going on out there at Marra. Do you

75
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 3: think that the government needs to stand up another site

76
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 3: or have some additional staff so that we're able to

77
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 3: really get through these tests as quickly as possible.

78
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, Katy, Look, they're gun of government had eighteen months

79
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: to prepare for the situation, because I think that you'd

80
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: have to be prepared for it because it deably is

81
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: here and I'm going to deal with it now. But

82
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: unfortunately the execution of that plan hasn't gone down to

83
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: what they expected. You know, the plan was is to

84
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: lock down and trace and trap the virus, and then

85
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: unfortunately this testing issue and it's just been out of control.

86
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: The people are waiting up for six hours, his children

87
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: in the car just to try and get tested. People

88
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: are encouraged to go and get testing and they just

89
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: simply can't because it's very difficult waiting for that long

90
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: in line.

91
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 3: Well hearing this morning, you know, even some of those

92
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 3: provisions like being able to go to the toilet obviously

93
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 3: while you're in the line. I know it seems incidental,

94
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: but at the end of the day. If we're making

95
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 3: people wait for that long, we've got to try to

96
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 3: make sure that they're okay.

97
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: Well, like I said, it's just the execution of the

98
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: plan hasn't gone down. They're going to government needs to

99
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: step up. This could get worse before it gets better.

100
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: There needs to be additional testing. It needs to be

101
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: easy to get tested. They encourage people to get tested,

102
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: and people aren't going to go and get tested if

103
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: they have to wait for six hours and get turned

104
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: away and come back tomorrow or the next day. We

105
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: just need to make sure that we contain this virus,

106
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: and we do that through testing well.

107
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 3: And the big concern I think at this point as well,

108
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 3: is that, you know, we are anticipating We're anticipating an

109
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 3: awful lot of people are going to need to be

110
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 3: tested as those exposure sites grow. Now the worry is

111
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 3: we are being told that we're in lockdown until one

112
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 3: pm on frit But it's going to be critical that

113
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 3: those tests are able to be turned around quickly so

114
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 3: that we are able to get out of lockdown and

115
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 3: ensure that this thing hasn't spread further than we initially thought.

116
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: Well, you're right, Katie, there certainly needs to be some

117
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: thought about that. I remember there's over twenty five thousand

118
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: people who live in the rural area and how many

119
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: any testing sites out here, and if those exposure sites grow,

120
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: perhaps they do need to start thinking about additional testing

121
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: sites because, like I said, what we need here is

122
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: clear communicator. It's not chaos. Unfortunately, there is chaos around.

123
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 2: The testing Jared.

124
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 3: The other thing is the vaccine roll out. We learned

125
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 3: yesterday that there is going to be another vaccine center

126
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 3: set up at Marara on a Barala road there at

127
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 3: the Italian the Italian Club, but it's already totally booked out.

128
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: I don't know how exactly we manage the roll out better,

129
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 3: or if we need another center, or if we just

130
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 3: don't have enough vaccine at this point.

131
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: Well, ultimately we need to make sure that because that's

132
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: the second part of this plane. We need to get

133
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: ourself tested. We need to get vaccinated, So the gun

134
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 1: and government needs to step up and make sure if

135
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: you want to get vaccinated you can there's a site

136
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: that you can go and get get vaccinated. Because we

137
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: during estimates, we work out that the health mins they

138
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: had a budget of five hundred thousand dollars for an

139
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: awareness program, and yet only half of that scenes have

140
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: been spent. So there needs to get out there in

141
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: the community because as we all know, there's a confusion

142
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: about the vaccine and the rollout and whether it's good

143
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: or bad, So the government needs to make sure that

144
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: they can deal with that and they get as many

145
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: people vaccinated as possible.

146
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 3: Deputy Opposition leader Jared Maylee, we appreciate your time this morning.

147
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for chatting with us.

148
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 1: Thank you by it
