Royal Adelaide Hospital

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:40): Can the minister confirm that the new Royal Adelaide Hospital fire live testing was independently certified before technical and practical completion?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:40): There is some testing that, under the arrangement we have, the commercial settlement with the consortium, it was agreed that there would be some items that would be put off until after commercial acceptance. Those testings don't go to the safety or to the safe operations of the hospital. Whether that particular item falls in one of those, I would need to check, but, with regard to the safe operating of the hospital, all the relevant testing has been ticked off by the independent certifier.
