1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: If you're listening to the show. Yesterday we spoke to

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: Amber and They are a vital not for profit organizations

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: supporting individuals and families through the loss of a child,

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: which has been well. They've been operating in the Northern

5
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: Territory for decades. Now the service is turning to the

6
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: community for urgent financial support as they are facing the

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 1: real prospect of having to cease operations after exhausting all

8
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: other funding avenues. Now, after we spoke to the chair

9
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: Taylor Peters, we were inundated with women contacting the show

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 1: to share their experiences of a loss of a child

11
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 1: and how Amber Andee has helped to support them. Some

12
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: of those stories and situations that we spoke about were

13
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: nothing short of harrowing, and you know, really made me

14
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: understand just how important this service is in the Northern Territory.

15
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: Now joining us in the studio is the Health Minister,

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: Steve Edgington. Good morning to your minister, Good.

17
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 2: Morning Katie, and good morning all the listeners.

18
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: Thanks so much for your time this morning. Now, Minister,

19
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: are you aware of the funding situation impacting Amber and

20
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: at the moment.

21
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: Well, I certainly am, and I think it was just

22
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 2: over a month ago I received a letter from Amber

23
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 2: and what I've done since then has how to look

24
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 2: at what's the actual funding situation with Amber and T

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: and know firstly, I want to put on the record

26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: the fantastic work that Amber and T is doing here

27
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 2: in the Northern Territory, supporting families are during the most

28
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 2: difficult parts of their life, and the work that they're

29
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 2: doing is truly amazing. And all the feedback that I've

30
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: received so far has just been so overwhelming the support

31
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 2: that Amber and T provides. So what I have done

32
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: is gone back and how to look at the funding

33
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: situation with Amber and T and at the moment coming

34
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: to the latter stages of a five year funding agreement,

35
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: so that the Northern Territory Health have been providing the

36
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 2: sum of around about one hundred and seventeen thousand dollars

37
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: per year and that includes fifteen thousand dollars for rental

38
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,639
Speaker 2: assistance as well for Amber and T. At the moment,

39
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: we certainly understand the situation that Amber and T isn't

40
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 2: at the moment that there has been an increase in

41
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: further demand on their service, which has had in itself,

42
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 2: So what we are doing is facilitating an early payment

43
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: to Amber see them through at the moment. But the

44
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 2: funding agreement itself expires in twenty twenty six.

45
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: Okay, so not additional funding, but a bringing forward of that.

46
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,839
Speaker 2: Fund that's right. So it's not additional funding. As I said,

47
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 2: we're locked into a five year funding agreement. And that's

48
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 2: one hundred and seventeen thousand, three hundred and fifteen excluding

49
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 2: GST per year, and that includes that fifteen thousand dollars

50
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: rental assistance program.

51
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: And did you say that that agreement ends in twenty

52
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: twenty six.

53
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that agreement was actually signed back in January

54
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one. It's a five year agreement. So as

55
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: time gets closer to the end of that agreement, we'll

56
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: certainly work with AMBER and t see how we go

57
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 2: moving forward. Yeah.

58
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: What really struck me yesterday is is, you know, the

59
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: way in which they've helped not just women, but families

60
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: right across the Northern Territory who've lost their babies and

61
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: their children. And you know, a couple of those mums

62
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: actually saying to me, well, one in particular, had said

63
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: that her placenta had ruptured on the way to the hospital.

64
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: She woke up, she was asking where her baby was

65
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: and then found out that she'd lost her baby. And

66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: she said that, you know, she was in a like

67
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: an absolute state of disarray as you would imagine, and

68
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: Amber and t just sort of helped her with everything

69
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: in the aftermath.

70
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. And Amber and Tee has been at the

71
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 2: forefront of her, providing the support under the most difficult

72
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: and devastating circumstances for family. So look, we're supporting Amber

73
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: and will continue to support Amber and Tee. That funding agreement,

74
00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 2: as I said, we'll expire around about January twenty t

75
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 2: twenty six, that five year funding agreement, and we're happy

76
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 2: to sit down with Amber and Tea and see what

77
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 2: opportunities there are to move forward. But I do know

78
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: that Amber and Tea, you know, they're out there looking

79
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: for other funding opportunities as well through sponsorships. We've also

80
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 2: advised them that there's other funding programs they might to apply,

81
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: they might be able to apply for, certainly the Community

82
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 2: Development Program, which is the which can provide up to

83
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty thousand in operational funding. That's the

84
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 2: program where money from the Pokey's and all that money

85
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 2: goes into that Community Development Fund so that not for

86
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 2: profits have the opportunity to apply to get some benefit

87
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 2: back from that funding.

88
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: Minister, do you know if we have a lot of

89
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: other services for families who are dealing.

90
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 2: With the lotgrams across the board, whether it's the employee

91
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 2: assistance programs, whether it's professional counseling and those sorts of things,

92
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 2: But when it comes to Amber and T they're providing

93
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 2: that specific support program to families during those difficult periods,

94
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 2: and I think that's the beauty of what Amberantee is providing.

95
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: Do they maybe need a boost up? I mean when

96
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: you look at how many families they are helping, and unfortunately,

97
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: you know, if their demand has increased, and look, I

98
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: hope and I'm sure like I hope that they appreciate

99
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: or I hope that this is going to help them

100
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: in terms of that funding being moved forward. But do

101
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: you think that there potentially needs to be a boost up.

102
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 2: Looking at the demand And the sad part about it

103
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 2: is that there is increasing demand for this type of

104
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 2: service and what the position we're in at the moment

105
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 2: is that this funding agreement will expire in January twenty

106
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 2: twenty six when it comes to funding across the board

107
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 2: from a Northern Territory perspective, just coming into government, we've

108
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 2: been faced with a nine billion dollar debt. We've got

109
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 2: to and it's not just Amberantee. You know, we want

110
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 2: to support ambrandte but we've got a whole lot of

111
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 2: different programs, a whole lot of different providers telling us

112
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 2: that there's need, they need more money. We're in a

113
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 2: situation the moment where the budget, to the debt and

114
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 2: the deficit that we're facing just this year is making

115
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 2: it very difficult to increase funding across the board. So

116
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: what we'll do when we look at as this agreement

117
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 2: comes to the expiry, we'll have a look at what

118
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 2: the opportunities are moving forward to support Amber and Tee.

119
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: But in the interim we've certainly given them opportunities to

120
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 2: well to try and help to try and get other

121
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 2: grants through some of those government grant bodies. But of

122
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 2: course I know that Amber and Tee is often seeking

123
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 2: a sponsorship, so there's opportunities for anyone listening today to

124
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 2: provide that support as well.

125
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, there most certainly is. Well, look, we'll we'll no

126
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: doubt hear more from them, and hopefully this is going

127
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,239
Speaker 1: to be really helpful to them. And as you said,

128
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: you'll then be able to continue those discussions once that

129
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 1: the funding agreement that's in place now sort of moves along.

130
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: Now on to another important issue. I understand the Northern

131
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 1: Territory is actually celebrating thirty.

132
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 2: Years of breastscreen thirty years and I was out at

133
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 2: Casarini yesterday, Kadie, and what a great news story because

134
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, the Breast screen NT has done

135
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: an incredible job thirty years of providing that service. And

136
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: I think the statistics that I had in front of

137
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: me yesterdays they provided free breast screening to around about

138
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty seven thousand people over that thirty

139
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 2: year period. But operating US is now just approaching I

140
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 2: think ten years. So here we are ten years of

141
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 2: the bus going out to remote areas as well, and

142
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 2: the buses out there, and I saw some photos that's

143
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 2: down in my electorate at the moment, so there's some

144
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: amazing work getting done there. That bus, the Mammogram bus

145
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: is traveling roughly about sixteen thousand kilometers per year and

146
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: working with primary health clinics in remote areas to ensure

147
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: that all women over forty have that opportunity to get

148
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: that free breast screen done.

149
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: So it is absolutely pivotal work. It is so instrumental,

150
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: and you know, making sure that there's that early detection

151
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: when it comes to things like breast cancer. You know,

152
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: like it's such a huge thing to make sure that

153
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: it is out there helping women. I mean, one hundred

154
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: and forty seven thousand women. Did you say all people

155
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: that one hundred and.

156
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 2: Forty seven thousand the breast screens have been done in

157
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 2: that thirty year period. But I think, and I haven't

158
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 2: got the statistics in front of me, but I think

159
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 2: when it comes to early detection, we're talking over nine

160
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 2: hundred early identification of possible breast cancer. So that's the

161
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: work that they're doing. That early detection is incredibly important

162
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 2: for women over forty those that are under forty are

163
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 2: certainly women that are under forty can work with their

164
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 2: GP to ensure that they get the proper support and

165
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: the screening that's needed. But at the moment, that free

166
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: breast screening for any woman over the age of forty,

167
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 2: that's happening right across the Northern territory and it's really

168
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:59,599
Speaker 2: fantastic being out there yesterday just celebrating thirty years and

169
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 2: smile on the faces of staff out there, but hearing

170
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 2: about the incredible work that they're doing was truly amazing.

171
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: It is truly amazing, Steve. How's it all going as

172
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 1: the health Minister? I mean you got instantly I've had

173
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: to hit the ground running right.

174
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 2: Well, it's been incredible work, Katie, and you know, moving

175
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 2: forward in government, We've got a fantastic team and my

176
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 2: portfolios alone covering health, mental health and alcohol policy, but

177
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 2: also I've been out and about in my one of

178
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 2: my new portfolios which is housing, local government, community Development,

179
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 2: but importantly the overarching portfolio that I have around Aboriginal

180
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 2: affairs but also central Services. All of my portfolios go

181
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 2: hand in hand together, and I'm really excited to get

182
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 2: out in the bush because all of these points, and

183
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 2: you know, some of our policies around empowering communities to

184
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 2: move back towards a local government model where people feel

185
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 2: empowered in their communities. Not only feel empowered, but they

186
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,479
Speaker 2: are empowered through an election process to look after their communities,

187
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 2: make decisions about service delivery and programs and that's we

188
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,199
Speaker 2: see that that's going to give people a better start

189
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 2: of life in those remote areas.

190
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: Steve a very quick one. A lot of people are

191
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: absolutely up in arms this morning. I know it's not

192
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: a government decision, but they're up in arms about the

193
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 1: Darwin City Council's decision not to award HPA the contract

194
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: to run Shoal Bay and the recycling center. There's probably

195
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: not a huge amount that you can say given the

196
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: fact that it's a council, but as the Minister for

197
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: Local Government, I mean thirty percent, I believe is the

198
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: weight that goes towards the tender or the procurement for

199
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: it being a local business, it's going to an interstate business.

200
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: I mean, does that need to maybe be amped up?

201
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 2: Well, I think when it comes to those thirty percent waitings,

202
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 2: and you know, I just want to say that there's

203
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: a number of dump shops around the Northern Territory. I

204
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 2: know that to Intenet Creek they're just opening up one.

205
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 2: The shopdown in Alla Springs is incredible and that's being

206
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 2: run locally by the Alice Springstown Council. So look, when

207
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 2: it comes to Dawn HPA, I think I've had dealings

208
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: with HPA over the years and they've done some amazing work.

209
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 2: But when it comes to that thirty percent waiting, Look,

210
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: I don't know the full details of how that procurement

211
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 2: process worked, but it would be something I'd be interested

212
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 2: to speak with the Lord Mayor about and get a

213
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 2: feel for what's happened there. But given the outpouring of

214
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 2: a concern from people here in Darwen, it sounds like

215
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 2: something needs to be looked at.

216
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: Before I let you go. Bill's just messaged through from Gray.

217
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: Bill says, Hi, Katie, could you please ask Minister Steve

218
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: Edgington why the aged and pensioners can't get the RSV

219
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: vaccination without paying a lot of money. I know that

220
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: the federal government had announced, and we spoke to a

221
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: pediatrician about it yesterday that babies and I believe expectant

222
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 1: mums are now able to get that vaccination, but he's

223
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: wondering why pensioners maybe can't as well. Well.

224
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 2: I must say, look, I don't know the full details

225
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 2: at Katie, but it's something I'm certainly keen to take

226
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 2: away and look into. Look, I can't provide the answer

227
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 2: here at the moment, but what I will do is

228
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 2: a commit to going away and finding out a bit

229
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 2: more about that.

230
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: Sounds good. Steve Edgington, the Minister for Health, thanks so

231
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: much for your time this morning.

232
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 2: Good on you, Katie, and thank you to all the

233
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 2: listeners out there.

234
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: Thank you
