Dept Health aren't exactly pulling out the big guns to defend this thing. Tania Rishniw doesn'r even report to the Secretary, she looks after "Portfolio Strategies", whatever that means and reports to Caroline Edwards (Health Systems Policy & Primary Care) who reports to the Secretary Glenys Beauchamp.

I can't find anything the Secretary has ever said about digital health, so it's not surprising she wants to keep a low profile. Although, having said that, under the legislation, she is supposed to direct ADHA.
