Businesses ‘lying’ about missing RAT orders: Greg Hunt

Any wonder Greg Hunt is getting out of Politics. His electorate is much wiser.

Health Minister Greg Hunt has accused businesses of lying about desperately needed supplies of rapid COVID tests being seized by the federal government. There have been multiple claims from Australian businesses that they have been told by wholesalers that orders of rapid tests for workplaces have been diverted to fulfil government orders. On Wednesday, the South Australian government also said it had asked regulators to investigate reports of its RATs had been improperly diverted to other states. But in Canberra on Thursday Mr Hunt emphatically denied suppliers’ claims that orders of the scarce tests were being requisitioned by the government. “They are lying. That is why I am reporting them to the ACCC,” he said.
