Answer

I am advised that officials have undertaken an initial assessment of risks and specific areas that may be more impacted by disruptions in fuel supply to inform fuel prioritisation and resilience planning across the health sector. Health agencies will continue to monitor and engage with potentially impacted health sector areas as fuel prioritisation and response planning develops.
