Hearings commence at Victorian contact tracing inquiry - The Age

The Victorian Upper House committee inquiry into the state's contact tracing begins hearings today.

You can watch proceeding live on the stream below:

The first witnesses today are from Salesforce with Australia and New Zealand chief executive Pip Marlow and principal archtect Michael Bonaddio set to give evidence for an hour from 9am.

They will be followed by the Australian Medical Association's Julian Rait, Office of the Information Commissioner commissioner Sven Bluemmel and privacy and data collection ceputy commissioner Rachel Dixon.

Around lunchtime the committee will hear from Barwon Health department of infectious diseases director Eugene Athan and deputy director Daniel O’Brien and then Deakin University faculty of health Professor Catherine Bennett. You can find the full schedule here.

The inquiry was established in late October after the opposition and minor parties voted together in the Upper House.

Victoria's contact tracing system came under fire during and after the state's second wave, particularly from the federal government.

Over the pandemic the state moved away from its centralised contact tracing system to establish suburban and regional hubs, replacing its pen-and-paper systems with computers and contacting close contacts of confirmed coronavirus cases within 36 hours of initial testing.
