Urgent Debates Declined — Christchurch Hospital Emergency Department—Death of Individual

I have also received an application from Dr Shane Reti seeking to debate events surrounding the death of the person attending Christchurch Hospital Emergency Department on Sunday, 16 October 2022. An urgent debate is a way of holding the Government accountable for an action it has taken—Speaker’s ruling 200/4. While a review into the death is under way, it is not clear from the application that the Government has announced that it will take any particular action arising from the individual case. The application is therefore declined.
