The Hon. L.W.K. BIGNELL (Mawson) (14:36): A supplementary, Mr Speaker: does the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure stand by his assertion to this house that Mary MacKillop was born in Penola?

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning) (14:36): To clarify—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, members on my left! We have the question. I would like to hear the answer.

The Hon. A. Koutsantonis interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Member for West Torrens, I'm not a kid.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Member for West Torrens, please cease interjecting. The minister has the call. The member for Kaurna is called to order. The member for Hurtle Vale is called to order as well. Minister.

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL: Rather than being born in Penola, that is where Mary MacKillop was helping to educate young people and had a school and founded an order of nuns and also worked to improve education in the South-East.
