We should write back to the petitioner and update the petitioner and the supporters on the new whistleblower legislation. I recommend we refer the complaint to the Joint Committee on Health and Children. I would strongly reserve our position with the Joint Committee on Health and Children but we may request it to conduct an investigation and report back to us.
We would want to ensure that the new whistleblower legislation is strong enough. We should ask the petition if she has further recommendations in that area. I think this is a very serious issue.
