          <by role="member" id="1804">Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:40):</by>  My question is to the Minister for Health. Why did it take your department nine days to report to you the disappearance of the Royal Adelaide Hospital electronic file? If you do not know the answer to that, why hasn't it been included in the terms of reference of the inquiry that you have told us about today?</text>

FOLEY (Port Adelaide—Deputy Premier, Treasurer, Minister for Industry and Trade, Minister for Federal/State Relations) (14:40):</by>  I can say that it is a mysterious concern as to why the delay occurred between the minister being made aware of it and myself, who has overall responsibility for the PPP. What I have done in relation to my discussions with the minister, is write to the Crown Solicitor expressing that very point.</text>

          <by role="member" id="532">The Hon. K.O. FOLEY:</by>  I am answering the question as to what has occurred. I am very concerned that such a time delay occurred in the proper notification of ministers. As a responsible minister for the PPP, I have written to the Crown Solicitor asking that he review what occurred and advise the government as to what, if any, further improvements or changes need to be made to the process. I think it is only appropriate that the Crown Solicitor review all probity matters that relate to this, and that is what I have done.</text>
