House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time SA Pathology SA Pathology Mr PICTON House of Assembly Kaurna SA Pathology Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (15:44): Supplementary: if the minister stands by that quote, will he now stand up for his community and oppose the privatisation of SA Pathology? The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly Stuart Minister for Energy and Mining SA Pathology The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining) (15:44): I will do exactly what I did last time, and that was look at the issues, consider how best to provide the service, take advice from experts—not the shadow minister for health, I can tell you that. 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: Someone who knows what they are talking about when it comes to health. I will talk to people. I will consider all of those things in exactly the same vein that the Minister for Health will do. He will assess the opportunities, he will assess where it's best to continue as we are, where it's best to continue with Pathology SA, but change how they work where it may potentially even be best to make other changes as well. We will focus on what is best for service delivery in places that people access the service. That is exactly what I said in that quote, and that is exactly what our government will continue to do.
