Text

I welcome the Minister's movement to have an investigation into the issue of excess deaths, which is something that the previous Minister refused to conduct. Does the Minister believe that lockdowns not only caused massive damage to the development of our infants, damage to the education of our children, the rise in anxiety and depression among our most vulnerable, an increase in domestic and sexual violence and an increase in child abuse but caused deaths?
