Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:16): I am going to ask the question again to the Premier. Can the Premier assure the house that no data gathered through interactions with government websites has been shared with the Liberal Party in any form—any government website?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:16): I think I have just answered that but, for clarity, not to the best of my knowledge. The issues that were raised and canvassed in the media, fuelled by the opposition who referred to this as a scandal—and they know all about scandals on that side of the house. They've got the Oakden scandal, they've got the Gillman scandal and they've got the current scandal that they are dealing with on that side of the house where there have been very serious allegations made by one of their own—a person who only left this parliament at the last election—so they know all about scandals. But this is not a scandal. In fact, we have made it very clear that there has been no collection or retention of data, and that has been confirmed by NationBuilder.
