South Eastern Sydney Local Health District has its own billing and payment collection system - SLHD CEO Teresa Anderson had no need for Revenue NSW to act on her behalf -Anderson's conduct raises accounting and management issues, investigation must include former NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller's statement that Revenue NSW, not Anderson's SLHD would charge quarantine fees
by Ganessh Sahathevan
Those who have received demandd for payment of quarantine fees from Revenue NSW would be familiar with tis statement contained in the Revenue NSW demand:
Revenue NSW is acting on behalf of Sydney Local Health District to recover fees related to mandatory
quarantine services.
Why Revenue NSW had to be involved in collecting a fee for health services provided by the SLHD has never been explained. SLHD has a well developed payment system and has its own invoices, on its own letterhead. These are displayed on its payment portal:
Anderson has now additional accounting and management issues to answer for. An investigation is now overdue and must include former NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller who said that Revenue NSW, not Anderson's SLHD, would charge quarantine fees.

On the other , former NSW Ministers Hazzard, Tudehope have insisted that the quarantine fees are being charged by Sydney Local Health District, pursuant to the NSW Health Services Act (HSA).
