BLACK HILL FIRE SIREN

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (14:41): My question is for the Minister for Emergency Services. Can the minister advise if the government is still demanding that the Campbelltown council pay for Labor's election commitment to construct a fire siren for the residents of Athelstone, near Black Hill?

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY (Port Adelaide—Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Police, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Motor Sport, Minister Assisting the Premier with the Olympic Dam Expansion Project) (14:41): I have absolutely no idea.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

Members interjecting:

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: How is that business of yours going? Closed?

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. P.F. Conlon: Tell him he didn't get the Adelaide Oval job.

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: He put in an expression of interest to supply the furniture for the new Adelaide Oval. Talk about a hypocrite.

The SPEAKER: Order, minister! Back to the question.

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: Talk about a hypocrite. I will come back to the member.

The SPEAKER: Member for Flinders.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. K.O. Foley: A dickhead like you.

The SPEAKER: Order!

Mr WILLIAMS: Point of order: quite often there are schoolchildren in the gallery and I don't think that the member should be using that sort of language in the house.

The SPEAKER: Yes, I would ask the member to withdraw that. It is not appropriate language.

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: I withdraw and I apologise.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! The member for Flinders.
