SA Health

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:07): My question is again to the Premier. Does the Premier agree with the Hon. Bruce Lander that without additional resources he is unable to conduct a widespread and comprehensive investigation into SA Health without unduly interfering with his other functions?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:07): The government provides a budget to the commission each year. I note that it has significantly increased. There was a very substantial increase that was included in the most recent budget that was handed down. It is not our role to be providing direction or even advice to the commissioner as to how he should spend that money.
