Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:25): My question is to the Premier. Why did the Premier say on radio and again to this house that in terms of our curve we are in front when actually we are on the same path as other states in terms of the acceleration of cases?

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL: Point of order: the member is seeking to introduce fact and argument as part of the question.

The SPEAKER: For inserting facts. Would the member like to seek leave?

Mr PICTON: I would like to seek leave.

Leave granted.

The SPEAKER: Member for Kaurna, can we have the question again with the insertion of facts?

Mr PICTON: My question is to the Premier. Why has the Premier said to this house that in terms of our curve we are in front? With your leave and that of the house, I will explain. The Premier said on the radio and again to this house, 'In terms of our curve, we're in front.'

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:26): There's plenty of information out there that looks at various trajectories and we are certainly very satisfied with the trajectory that we're on. Our goal is to slow that further. We have had no deaths, we have had very few—

The Hon. S.C. Mullighan interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, member for Lee!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: I refer the member to my previous answers.
