Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (14:45): Supplementary: is the minister conducting discussions with the ANMF about changing the enterprise bargaining agreement to reduce overtime and penalty rates?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:45): Not that I am aware of. We have only recently concluded the enterprise bargaining. I think it was last year that we concluded the enterprise bargaining process. Actually, it may have been 2013 that we concluded the enterprise bargaining process. I think it is a three-year EB to my knowledge. It is not up for renegotiation, but if the Liberal Party wants to go to the ANMF and tell them that that is what they have on the table, I will leave that to them.
