Ministerial Staff

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:57): Fine—he can dismiss it. My question now is to the Minister for Transport. Is the Minister for Transport aware that his own chief of staff sent an insulting and offensive email to a senior member of the businesses community last week?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (14:58): Can I thank the deputy leader for her question. I am sure that my chief of staff is in constant contact with several members of the business community. I am surprised to learn that any of those members believe that they have been the recipient of an offensive email from him but, now that you've raised it, I'll investigate that.

The Hon. J.M. Rankine interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Wright is warned.
