ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL
Mrs REDMOND (Heysen—Leader of the Opposition) (14:16): Can the Treasurer explain to the house in what way the new Royal Adelaide Hospital will not be constructed by or on behalf of the Crown or a state instrumentality, as per the provisions of section 3 of the Parliamentary Committees Act?
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Treasurer, Minister for Employment, Training and Further Education) (14:16): Ma'am, the opposition want to rake over this issue of whether the government is obliged to refer the Royal Adelaide Hospital project—
Members interjecting:
The SPEAKER: Order!
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: —to the Public Works Committee. Our advice from Crown is explicit and clear that we are not obliged to refer it. However, the government is prepared to consider its options to allow Public Works to undertake an inquiry. I have had a discussion with the member for Waite, and I am looking forward to the member for Waite getting back to me.
Members interjecting:
The SPEAKER: Order! The member for Ashford.
