Dr Jeannette Young’s inability to procure emails detailing the health advice Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk relied on in shutting borders is a “pathetic attempt” by the Queensland government to “hide the truth”, says social commentator Prue MacSween.
Documents detailing the government’s closed-border policy remain missing eight months after Gold Coast business owner Michael Chase-Smith submitted a freedom of information request with officials alleging the state’s chief health officer’s emails “keep corrupting”.
“It’s a corruption of a process, we really have to wonder who is really behind the corruption,” Ms MacSween told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
“This woman who is going to be governor has no credibility now, and we know that Palaszczuk, as the whole government, has been one that has been very selective with the truth.
“There’s something like 90,000 public servants who work in the Queensland government health department – couldn’t one of them have been able to sort out the emails?
“This is just another particularly pathetic attempt by this government to hide the truth, to obfuscate and adjust spin and that’s just how they operate.”
