House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Attorney-General Attorney-General The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Attorney-General The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (15:07): My question is to the Attorney-General. Will the Attorney-General make the legal opinion of the Crown Solicitor regarding her public comments about an ICAC investigation available to detectives in South Australia Police probing her conduct? The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Premier Attorney-General Attorney-General The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General) (15:07): I have made a number of statements about this, and I will not be waiving legal professional privilege for anyone, nor will I be suing— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Deputy Premier has the call. The member for West Torrens is on two warnings. The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: Just so that we are absolutely clear— The Hon. A. Koutsantonis interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: He is on two warnings. The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: —I haven't had any requests from police in relation to this matter at all, let alone to seek legal advice. So it is hypothetical, but I just want to reassure the house that, should there be any request in relation to assistance on any inquiry which, as I have said, is currently an anonymous indication that there is a preliminary assessment in some way being considered—or has been considered; I'm not sure if it is even current—then of course I will provide and would expect our government to provide whatever assistance we could. In relation to the matter, the opinion has been provided. I have confirmed that it is under legal professional privilege, and this idea that 'we'll show you ours so you have to now show us yours' is just rubbish.
