Will the government today table the independent report it has received into issues at the Australian Craniofacial Unit? Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order, members on my right! The minister has the call. The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly Stuart Minister for Energy and Mining The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:48): I suppose at least this time it wasn't a supplementary question. It was just the same question again. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Please do not provoke the opposition, minister. The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: Without having spoken to the Minister for Health about this, let me go out on a limb and say that the answer is, no, we will not table that report today. The minister has only just received it today. He is working through it— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: It is pretty interesting to have the shadow minister for health— The Hon. V.A. Chapman House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. Chapman: Where's the Transforming Health report? The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The Deputy Premier is called to order. The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: —asking about the release of reports when the shadow minister for health used to work for a former minister for health and, I would be quite certain, used to give advice to that minister not to release reports. I am sure that is exactly the advice that he gave. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order, members on my right! The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: There's a new government in town. We don't operate that way. We do not operate the way the previous government did, which was: keep all information to yourselves, release absolutely nothing unless you're forced to. We will take a sensible, objective approach. The minister will look at that report. He will determine for himself whether he believes it is appropriate to release it or not. He will determine— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The leader will not interject. The member for Kaurna is on two warnings now. The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: Just to save the house some time, there is no need for the shadow minister to ask another question about whether I know it is in the report, another question about 'When will the minister release it?', 'If the minister will release it,' because, do you know what, Mr Speaker? If the Minister for Health chooses to release this report, it will be because he believes it is in the very best interests of all South Australians, and when he does that I am sure the shadow minister for health— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: —will be one of the first people to become aware of it.
