NationBuilder
Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (15:09): My question is to the Premier. Why on earth is Sascha Meldrum, Director of the Liberal Party, answering questions on the record about the functionality of government websites, which she should have absolutely nothing to do with?
Members interjecting:
The SPEAKER: Order, the Minister for Innovation and Skills! The Premier will resume his seat for a moment. The Minister for Innovation and Skills is warned. The Premier has the call.
The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (15:10): I refer the Leader of the Opposition to my comprehensive answers to a suite of questions on this issue. I am very happy to continue answering questions on it but, to be quite honest, I think the statements that have now been made by NationBuilder certainly clarify this issue from the situation of confusion that has existed since Friday.
I have to say, since we originally received the questions from the media, it was difficult to understand exactly where they were going in the first instance because, as I said, this was inadvertent. It was government employees who were essentially cutting and pasting text from our press releases and putting it onto government websites. As soon as that has been identified, it has been rectified. We are now using a completely different system.
