EVANS House of Assembly Davenport HomeStart Finance The Hon. I.F. EVANS (Davenport) (14:32): Supplementary, sir: was Project A the scoping of the sale of HomeStart Finance, and has the government scoped HomeStart Finance for sale? The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Finance Minister for State Development Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy Minister for Small Business HomeStart Finance The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business) (14:32): Sir, I don't know what Treasury have done while preparing incoming opposition briefs. Treasury would have prepared two sets of briefs for the incoming government: they would have prepared a set for the Labor Party, and a set for the opposition. No doubt, I suspect that in their briefs they would have done scoping work for all of your plans—sack 25,000 public servants, privatise— The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: All of the opposition's plans, not my plans. The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Yes, sir, I apologise; you are with us—plans to sack public servants, plans to privatise SA Water, plans to sell off the Housing Trust stock. I am sure they did all that work, sir. Have they done it on behalf of the government? Sir, I have not seen anything that would suggest that we have, but I will go back and check. I can assure the members opposite that it is not this government that has plans—or had plans—to privatise assets; I think members opposite should look closer to themselves about what they had planned. But I will, of course, go back and check and get a detailed answer for the house. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Further supplementary, member for Davenport.
