Coronavirus, Parafield Cluster

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:37): Supplementary question: why did SA Health make the decision not to provide the contact tracing evidence to that investigation?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:37): I thank the member for his question. It is a very interesting question. I think that it is a long-held practice of public health officials not to provide evidence of conversations, evidence gathered during the course of interviews that contact tracers within the Communicable Disease Control Branch have with people who are providing them with information. This has been a longstanding practice for this sector, both in South Australia and other jurisdictions.

The SPEAKER: Before I call the member for Kaurna, I call to order the member for Elizabeth and I call to order the member for Schubert.
