Mr MALINAUSKAS House of Assembly Mr MALINAUSKAS: On ABC radio this morning, Professor David said, and I quote: …Stephen Wade when he’d heard it rang me up straight away and said…he wanted to alter that, he knows full well and so do I that the so-called review was an internal HR review of their processes. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I am advised that question is in order. However, I would expect quite a broad answer, given the broad nature of the question. Minister.

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) (14:07): I'm not sure what sort of fishing expedition this is, but let me answer that question very, very directly. What advice did I rely on? I relied on the advice: 'The Minister for Health and Wellbeing has advised that his office received a copy of the independent review today. The minister will consider the review. Following this consideration the Minister will make a statement.' That is the advice that I received, and that's the advice upon which I answered the question.
