BETTISON (Ramsay—Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Minister for Ageing, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (14:49): It is my understanding that this verification service is used in different ways throughout the SA government. I will bring back a full brief to the minister—

The Hon. Z.L. BETTISON: As I said, I said I would take it on notice last week and come back to the house. What I have given you are the details of how this will happen. As far as the actual signature, I will have to come back with the details.

The SPEAKER: I call to order the Deputy Premier and the Treasurer.
