Darlington Upgrade Project

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:36): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. When was the minister first made aware that part of the Darlington project had collapsed?

The Hon. Z.L. Bettison: That would have been a bad call.

The SPEAKER: Member for Ramsay, you can leave for the rest of question time.

The honourable member for Ramsay having withdrawn from the chamber:

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning) (14:37): I was made aware on Monday, when it was apparent that this situation was more than just a minor defect the project would deal with internally, essentially when it got to a degree of seriousness that the contractors then had notified the department and the department came and spoke to me. This was outlined to me on Monday.
