Why is the minister refusing to tell the people of South Australia how many staff were rostered on at the Adelaide Remand Centre yesterday? What has he got to hide? The Hon. V.A. TARZIA House of Assembly Hartley Minister for Police Adelaide Remand Centre The Hon. V.A. TARZIA (Hartley—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services) (14:31): There is absolutely nothing to hide. What I have said— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! Members on my left will cease interjecting. The minister has the call. The Hon. V.A. TARZIA House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. TARZIA: What I have said and what I will say again is that I do not want to pre-empt any of these investigations that are ongoing at the moment. It is very important, sir, and you would appreciate this, that we find out how this happened and why this happened, and as a government of course we will make sure this sort of thing does not happen again, let me be very clear. But I was talking about some of my predecessors and what they said in relation to it for context. Members interjecting: The Hon. V.A. TARZIA House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. TARZIA: Why are you so sensitive? The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Point of order: standing order 98. The minister is disregarding the question and creating a situation where interjections and debate are occurring in the house during question time. He is being disorderly. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Deputy Premier is called to order. The Hon. V.A. TARZIA House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. TARZIA: I refer to my earlier statement. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I haven't ruled on the point of order. The Hon. S.C. Mullighan House of Assembly The Hon. S.C. Mullighan: He hasn't even ruled yet. Weren't you Speaker? The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order, member for Lee! Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The member for Badcoe is warned. I have the point of order. The question most recently from the leader included an expression in relation to the scope of material under consideration from the minister. It invited a somewhat broader answer than the previous question, so I do not uphold the point of order. As I understand it, the minister may have concluded his answer, but he has the call. The Hon. V.A. TARZIA House of Assembly The Hon. V.A. TARZIA: I have concluded my answer.
