 Ms CROZIER (Southern Metropolitan) (09:36): Reports today of whistleblowers coming forward and speaking out reveal the extent of Victoria’s health crisis yet again. Years of mismanagement and underfunding have contributed to what is now putting the lives of too many Victorians at risk. Constant ambulance ramping, failures in getting through to 000, regular code oranges being called within the ambulance system and code yellows in regional hospitals—this crisis extends across the state, and now administrators and doctors are saying there is not enough money or staff to open all their beds. It is a mess, and one of the Premier’s own making. He has got us into this mess; he is not the man to get us out of it.
