Flinders Medical Centre Food Contamination

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:19): Did the minister, or anyone in his office, request or suggest a delay in alerting the public to the deliberate contamination of food intended for patients at the Flinders Medical Centre?

The Hon. C.L. WINGARD (Gibson—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:20): Absolutely not. As I said, this is a matter that is under investigation by police. As a former police minister, you would know that, when police do an investigation, it is not for the minister to get involved. Police are investigating the matter and it's inappropriate for me to make any further comment.
