Member for Waite

Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (17:15): I do, thank you, sir, and again it is to you. Why did the Speaker's public statement on 17 January 2020 fail to mention that the private investigator would also be investigating the member for Waite's conduct at the Liberal Party Christmas function on 13 December?

The SPEAKER (17:15): I believe that the statement said, and I have it here:

The scope of the independent investigator's inquiries will be to endeavour to obtain full particulars as to what took place concerning the alleged conduct of Mr Duluk and to provide a report for the Speaker's consideration.

So, if the deputy leader wants to interpret it that way, she may, but I've got nothing further to add. The deputy leader and then the member for Heysen.
