Smith, Ms A.M.

Mr ODENWALDER (Elizabeth) (14:38): My question again then is to the Minister for Police. Had the minister been advised informally prior to 15 May of the death of Ann Marie Smith? With your leave again, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr ODENWALDER: The Attorney-General yesterday told the house that the Minister for Police had received notice prior to the police announcement on what was to be a major crime investigation into the death of Ann Marie Smith.

The Hon. C.L. WINGARD (Gibson—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:38): No.

The Hon. A. Koutsantonis: Well, Vickie, what did you tell us yesterday?

The SPEAKER: Member for West Torrens—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Members on my right! I am just reminding the member for West Torrens that he is on two warnings.
