Natasha Fyles defends Health Department response to damning coronial findings — and other findings before it

The Northern Territory Health Minister has disputed a coronial finding that inaction by health authorities contributed to the deaths of three young people in remote Indigenous communities, while defending herself for not yet reading the damning findings in full.
Key points:
- The coroner handed down the 59-page report on Tuesday morning
- Hours later, the minister’s office vowed to act on its recommendations
- But Natasha Fyles admitted on Wednesday morning she had not read the full document
The report, handed down by the coroner on Tuesday morning, found the Top End Health Service (TEHS) was failing to comply with recommendations he had made in two previous inquests and said their “refusal or inability” to do so contributed to their deaths.
