          <by role="member" id="535">The Hon. J.D. HILL: </by> For the acolytes of the former deputy leader behind her, I will calmly and patiently go through this. I was told on the date that I have just informed the house. I think it was 12 June, from memory. I will go back to my notes where it is written down—Friday 12 June. I am sure someone in my office was told before that because they told me, so that would obviously be the case. There would be people in the department who would have been told because they subsequently passed the information on to me. All that information is subject to any investigation that the Crown Solicitor's Office and SAPOL should choose to make.</text>

        <text id="20090716265808c610cd41aa80000562">Have I asked which people in my office were told before me? No. Why would I ask that, because it was not relevant. The Treasurer and I were told on 12 June and we asked the police and the Crown Solicitor's Office to investigate. If it is relevant to their investigations whether officer A or officer B was told before me, then I am sure they will pursue it.</text>
