00:00Can you, I guess, assure that no one's personal details were leaked or breached?
00:06Unfortunately, I can't assure that. It's currently the subject of a major investigation,
00:11and I expect that when we have the latest information relating to personal data,
00:18we let the public know, particularly those who are affected by it.
00:24The latest information I have is that personal, private, patient data has not been compromised.
00:31I just stress that's the latest information I have.
00:34There might have been an update on my travels up here, so that's good.
00:38We're looking at a data breach at other aspects of the health system and personnel,
00:44but not patient data, but I can't give that guarantee right now.
00:47And is there anything you can tell us maybe about the criminal investigation,
00:50what that will look like, what that will involve, if you know?
00:52No, just Commonwealth and state authorities working together.
00:56It's likely it's an offshore party. We'll see this pretty often, unfortunately.
01:02And just also on the cyber attack, police were alerted at 1pm on Friday.
01:06Why did it take more than four days for the public to be informed?
01:10For very good reasons to do with the investigation.
01:13And we take advice from the experts, particularly cyber security intelligence experts,
01:21and they tell us when to release the information.
01:24It's always as soon as possible, but not if it's going to compromise a successful investigation.
01:30I understand we released it still.
01:32It was four days later, but it wasn't as a result of a leak or media inquiries.
01:37The government still released the information, but we comply with the law in all circumstances.
01:42We work hard to release the information as soon as we can.
01:45The only caveat to it is if it will affect the investigation.
01:48And one of our law enforcement officials tells us when to do it.
01:54And you appreciate it from my point of view.
01:56If they tell me that that's the process and they need this to remain confidential for 48 hours
02:02while they conduct their inquiries, I'll do that.
02:04Have you got any...
02:10I think I got notified on the weekend.
02:13Have you got any information on a motive or what people want with this information?
02:19I have information about the motive, but not to be released yet.
02:23Are there any kind of demands in terms of ransoms from the state government?
02:26I just prefer not to comment on that at the moment.
02:31I just prefer not to comment on that at the moment.
