          <by role="member" id="4338">Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (15:02):</by>  Supplementary to that, what sanctions or protocols will you put in place, then, to ensure that this situation doesn't occur again where ministers' advisers don't comply with your own policies? What will you possibly do? You already had one recommendation which was ignored. You are putting another set of recommendations from the Debelle inquiry in place. Are they going to be ignored? What sanctions are you specifically going to put in place?</text>

          <by role="member" id="1812">The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Treasurer, Minister for State Development, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for the Arts) (15:02):</by>  I am having a bit of trouble following that, but if it's about the question of the department advising the minister's office, which was the subject of the Cossey matter, then I think I have answered that question, but if your question now becomes: what is the position in relation to ministerial advisers advising ministers about that matter, well there are clear recommendations about that. Obviously the publicity, the public censure, that is associated with this report, has been well noted by all ministerial advisers. It has been communicated with the ministerial advisers in this case. Other ministerial advisers have taken note of the events associated with the Debelle Inquiry, and practice will be changed accordingly.</text>
