Why is Shannon Fentiman hiding the truth from Queenslanders?
The Health Minister’s shocking record on releasing data to Queenslanders has further deteriorated, as she continues to withhold information.
It’s now been 24 days since last quarter’s data was due and it’s nowhere to be seen.
For example, today the Health Minister provided non-public data during Parliament, instead of the quarterly information Queenslanders are calling for.
This is nothing but a blatant misleading use of her own data.
Shannon Fentiman’s record on transparency is worse than her sacked predecessor Yvette D’Ath, and the trouble prone Steven Miles and Cameron Dick.
Shadow Health Minister Ros Bates said the Health Minister must start being up-front with Queenslanders today, to stop the chaos and crisis.
“Shannon Fentiman promised to be different to Yvette D’Ath,” Ms Bates said.
“She is. She’s worse.
“Shannon Fentiman is yet again releasing a slow trickle of numbers to make herself look good, instead of giving Queenslanders the full picture.
“It’s misleading and simply not good enough.
“Shannon Fentiman must come clean with Queenslanders and release the full health data today.
“Being open and transparent is the only way we can heal the Queensland Health Crisis.
“Queenslanders have put up with the chaos and crisis that has plagued the Palaszczuk Labor Government for far too long and they deserve better.
“The LNP has put solutions on the table to heal the Queensland Health Crisis including better resources, better triaging, sharing data in real-time and putting doctors and nurses back in charge to improve patient care.”
