Premier Declines to Probe Email Leak
Description
Tasmanian Premier Jeremy Rockliff refuses to investigate a leaked email from independent MLC Ruth Forrest, who asked officials to avoid strong fragrances during budget hearings due to health sensitivities — a leak that sparked her demand for an apology and accountability. Rockliff says the issue should be raised with the yet-to-be-established Independent Complaints Commissioner, despite critics pointing out the office doesn’t exist yet. The government has budgeted $50,000 annually for the role, which Rockliff deems sufficient for a part-time position — though the debate continues over whether Forrest’s email was meant to be public or private.
