Renewal SA

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (15:05): My question is to the Attorney-General. Given the police commissioner's public statements this morning, would the Attorney-General now table a copy of any written authorisation by the ICAC commissioner, the Hon. Bruce Lander QC, enabling or authorising the Attorney-General to make public statements in relation to an ICAC investigation of Renewal SA executives on 27 September 2018?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General) (15:06): It's almost laughable.

An honourable member interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: I read the statements of the police commissioner this morning. How that reflects to the balance of this question is anyone's guess. It is like one of those 'vibes', I think—we're back in The Castle.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: The reality is that there has been compliance. The answers have been presented to the parliament. Nothing the commissioner has said this morning—in relation to saying nothing, which is what he has confirmed—in any way changes that.

Mr Picton interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Heysen has the call, and the member for Kaurna is warned for a second time.
