Liberal Party, Sexual Assault Allegations

Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:12): My question is to the Premier. Has the Premier inquired as to the identity of Ms Potter's alleged assailant?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:12): No, sir. It's not my position to do that. I am not an investigative body. I don't think it would be appropriate to do that, but my strong message is that this allegation—this very serious allegation—should be taken to the appropriate authorities, and in this instance I think it would be the police.
