House of Assembly Fifty-Second Parliament, Second Session (52-2) 52 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Royal Adelaide Hospital ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL Mrs REDMOND House of Assembly Heysen Leader of the Opposition ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL Mrs REDMOND (Heysen—Leader of the Opposition) (14:30): My question, again, is to the Minister for Health and Ageing. Why did the minister's then adviser now Chief of Staff, Dominic Stefanson, request information from the health department during the caretaker period from the 2010 election campaign in relation to the Liberal Party's plan to rebuild the Royal Adelaide Hospital? The opposition has obtained emails under FOI from minister Hill's then adviser now Chief of Staff, Dominic Stefanson, seeking health department advice on Liberal Party policy. The Hon. J.D. HILL House of Assembly Kaurna Minister for Health and Ageing Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Minister for the Arts ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL The Hon. J.D. HILL (Kaurna—Minister for Health and Ageing, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts) (14:31): Madam Speaker, I would have thought that it was blindingly obvious: so that we could find out the cost of the propositions the Liberal Party were putting to the public of South Australia. I do not understand— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.D. HILL House of Assembly The Hon. J.D. HILL: I do not think that the opposition understands— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.D. HILL House of Assembly The Hon. J.D. HILL: —about caretaker provisions. You cannot make major decisions, you cannot make major appointments, you cannot spend budget money out of normal provisions. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.D. HILL House of Assembly The Hon. J.D. HILL: But there is absolutely nothing wrong asking questions, and that is, I assume, what my staff asked. If the opposition is embarrassed about what they put before the public in the 2010 election, I cannot help that, Madam Speaker. Mr Pisoni House of Assembly Mr Pisoni: You should be embarrassed. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The member for Mitchell.
