Illegal COVID Fines: Royal Commission NOW!

The New South Wales government recently withdrew and intend to refund over 23,000 COVID fines, in addition to the 36,000 fines withdrawn in 2022. These fines were unlawful and should never have happened.

I criticise the Albanese Government's whitewash COVID "review" for ignoring state government actions, including these unlawful "fines". There is so much about the State and Federal Government actions during COVID that must be examined immediately by a Royal Commission.

Only a Royal Commission has the power to subpoena documents and compel witnesses to appear and testify truthfully.

Senator Wong responded to my questions that the fines are a state matter and then defended the government's approach, saying that they were focusing on learning from the pandemic rather than assigning blame.

I questioned the government's commitment to transparency, pointing out the lack of a royal commission into COVID-19 despite a promise of transparency. Senator Wong reiterated the government's focus on preparing for future pandemics rather than prosecuting past health policies.

There is a need for accountability and justice, especially for those affected by vaccine injuries, and I question why the government is reluctant to call a comprehensive COVID royal commission. What do they have to hide?
