Our most recent responses to parliamentary inquiries are listed here.
Parliamentary inquiries investigate:
- policy matters
- government administration
- government performance.
The committees that run inquiries come from:
- the Senate
- the House of Representatives
- both (called joint committees).
When the committee completes its inquiry it tables a report in parliament. Where the inquiry is relevant to Health, we respond to these reports and state what we intend to do.
