Australian Craniofacial Unit

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:46): My question is again to the minister representing the Minister for Health. Can the minister outline for the house whether the government has received a legal claim from Dr Ben Grave from the Australian Craniofacial Unit about his being pushed out of the unit?

The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:46): No, I can't. I would be happy to find out and, if appropriate, bring an answer back to the house. By the very nature of the question, if it is a legal claim, there is information that may or may not be able to be shared with the house and with the shadow minister. I don't know if that is the case. If the member asking the question believes that to be the case, then perhaps he could share that information with the house. Purely the fact that he has asked the question opens up some very serious questions about what he may or may not be implying.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: But as I said—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, members on my left and right!

The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: —I will seek an answer to that question from the Minister for Health in the other place and, if appropriate, bring an answer back.

The SPEAKER: Yes, the sub judice rule may apply there, minister.

An honourable member: No, it does not.

The SPEAKER: I said it may apply. Member for Kaurna.
