Members, Accommodation Allowances

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:52): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. Can the minister assure the house that his principal place of residence, being the most direct route, is indeed 75 kilometres from the Adelaide GPO, making him eligible for the country members' accommodation allowance?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: Again, I repeat this is not public business under standing order 96.

The SPEAKER: Yes, I uphold the point of order. The member for Heysen, and I will come back to those on my left.
