Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:30): My question is to the Minister for Health. What is the revised budget for the delayed EPAS project, and why did the minister claim recently that he did not know what the cost increase beyond the revised budget of $422 million was when the Auditor-General's Report states quite clearly on page 11 that multiple cabinet submissions, both in March 2015 and December 2015, advised of significant blowouts in the $422 million budget?
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:31): I have been quite up-front about this for a very long time.
Members interjecting:
The SPEAKER: The member for Morialta is on two warnings.
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: Mr Speaker, you called me to order for screaming over or engaging with the opposition. I'm more than happy—
The SPEAKER: No, I called you to order for debating.
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: I am more than happy to not debate, but it is very hard when I have barely got a word out and the Leader of the Opposition is already shouting out at me.
Members interjecting:
The SPEAKER: The member for Unley is called to order and the leader is warned a first time. Minister.
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: I have been very up-front from the very beginning. From last year's estimates committee, I very well recall the Leader of the Opposition—
Mr Marshall interjecting:
The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: I'm just not going to answer.
Mr Gardner interjecting:
The SPEAKER: The member for Morialta will leave the chamber for the remainder of question time in accordance with the sessional order.
The member for Morialta having withdrawn from the chamber:
The SPEAKER: The member for Kaurna.
