House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Safeguarding Taskforce Safeguarding Taskforce Mr MALINAUSKAS House of Assembly Croydon Leader of the Opposition Safeguarding Taskforce Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:10): My question is to the Premier. Can the Premier explain to the house which of the inquiries he has referred to in his previous answers is actually examining the policy failings of the state government surrounding the death of Ms Ann Marie Smith? The Hon. S.K. KNOLL House of Assembly The Hon. S.K. KNOLL: The question contains argument and alleged facts. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I am going to allow the question and I am also going to allow the Premier an opportunity to refute any accusation in the question. The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly Dunstan Premier The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:11): The Leader of the Opposition says that this is a genuine question like he has to differentiate between this question and other questions that he has asked on this topic. This gives a real insight into the thinking that goes through this guy's head— The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The Premier will be seated for one moment. The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —when he is composing his questions without Kevin Naughton. The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Point of order, sir: debate. You took a great deal of umbrage at opposition members extending standing orders. That, sir, was blatantly out of standing orders. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I have the point of order; I don't need the speech that accompanies it. I am listening very carefully to the Premier's answer and he has the call. I have allowed the question, therefore I expect silence on my left and also on my right so that I can hear the answer. The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: The question really looked at what the differentiation was between the various groups that were looking at it. Obviously, the police in South Australia are conducting a major crime investigation, and then of course the Coroner will be looking at this case. Often we see with a Coroner's recommendations there are suggestions to governments on how the government can improve policy and legislation within the government but, of course, we have to wait for that work to be done. Similarly, the work will be done at the federal level by I think it is Robertson SC, His Honour, who will be conducting that inquiry on behalf of the federal government and their role.
