Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (14:34): My question is to the Premier. Does the Premier agree with Mr Debelle's finding, and I quote:

The Department is...entitled to expect that the ministerial adviser will inform the minister of matters significant to the discharge of the portfolio that have been sent to the minister adviser.

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Treasurer, Minister for State Development, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for the Arts) (14:34): Yes.
