Given that the so-called travel exemption for the member for Hartley's daughter was granted when the Treasurer was the Speaker, will he advise the house who actually made the decision that an exemption was available under the rules, and the decision that it was to be granted?

SNELLING (Playford—Treasurer, Minister for Workers Rehabilitation, Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Veterans' Affairs) (14:35): Exactly the same procedure as would have applied when the Leader of the Opposition asked for an exemption for her to have her child as her travel companion; absolutely no difference at all; exactly the same procedure. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.J. SNELLING House of Assembly The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: The procedure was this—I am not going to name the officers. They are officers of the parliament who are directly responsible for this. There was an email, which has been released to the media. The email is between a junior officer and his manager, and he has handwritten on the email that that manager has approved that it would be appropriate, in the case of the minister, to have her daughter as her travel companion. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order!
