Australia’s health minister Greg Hunt has confirmed the federal government’s support of a European Union motion for an independent investigation to the origins of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus.

“We support the EU motion which includes an independent investigation, regulatory work on wet markets and also the potential for independent inspection powers,” Hunt told Sky News.
