House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Royal Adelaide Hospital Blackout Royal Adelaide Hospital Blackout Mr PICTON House of Assembly Kaurna Royal Adelaide Hospital Blackout Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:54): My question, again, is to the Premier. Does the Premier stand by his previous comments that there is no way generator testing should be done when patients are in the operating theatres as it would put lives at risk? Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! Premier. The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly Dunstan Premier The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:55): I think that the Minister for Mining and Energy has clarified the situation. What occurred— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —under the previous regime, which for some unknown reason those opposite find of some amusement, was a very dangerous situation that occurred, because the operator of the hospital was doing the testing on the generators but without the knowledge of the hospital. We now have full information provided to the hospital so that they are perfectly aware of the testing. It is a completely different regime to what existed under the previous government where there was a very serious blackout, interruption to the energy supply, which had serious ramifications in February 2017. It is a completely different scenario now— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —and it is like comparing apples to oranges. Mr Malinauskas interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Leader! The member for Kavel, and then the member for Kaurna. Mr Malinauskas interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Leader, be quiet. The member for Kavel.
