          <by role="member" id="1813">Mrs REDMOND (Heysen—Leader of the Opposition) (14:38):</by>  My question is once again to the Minister for Education and Child Development. My question is who is right: the minister who told the media in relation to her 2010 trip to India with her daughter 'when I was sick she was with me the whole time'; or Major General Vikram Madan who said that he accompanied the minister's daughter on a flight from Singapore to Adelaide while the minister was sick in Singapore?</text>

          <by role="member" id="3127">The Hon. G. PORTOLESI (Hartley—Minister for Education and Child Development) (14:39):</by>  I did get sick, as did a number of other members of the party, whilst we were in India. However, I managed to board a flight from New Delhi with a number of other members of the party, including my daughter, and we made it to Singapore. My condition on the flight in Singapore deteriorated rapidly and that meant that we all got off at Singapore Airport. I went to the medical clinic where it became clear that I was going to have to stay in a hospital in Singapore. Singapore Airlines came to see me and sought my approval to take charge of my daughter's care. As to how they sought to arrange that on the flight is absolutely up to them.</text>
