Chemotherapy Treatment Error

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:11): My question is to the Minister for Health. Was the failure of SA Health to advise the family of Johanna Pinxteren that she was a victim of the chemotherapy dosing error the cover-up that the Premier has previously referred to?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:11): I completely reject and unequivocally refute that assertion.

Mr Marshall interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The leader is warned for the second and final time. It would be a pity if he were not here during the budget speech.

Mr Marshall: This is a very important issue, sir, that we are not getting any answers on.

The SPEAKER: It's not so important that you can breach standing orders. The member for Torrens.
