Ms HILDYARD (Reynell) (14:50): Supplementary, Mr Speaker: exactly what is deemed a critical incident?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (14:50): As members know, the Rice report has been undertaken. The recommendations have been given. We have accepted them.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! The Deputy Premier will resume her seat. The member for Kaurna is called to order and warned. The Deputy Premier has the call.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The leader will cease interjecting.

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: I am expecting that all of that will be completed. I have seen the drafts of the review of the critical incident reporting process, including from the Allen report which was given to the former government years ago and they did nothing about it—and we have done just that.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Member for Lee!

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: —completed by June. I have certainly given the task to my department to make sure that's done efficiently and quickly, as Mr Rice clearly indicated should be done. He pulled out the Allen report. He had indicated what had failed to be undertaken in relation to that report. He recommended again that it be done, and that is precisely what we are doing.

The SPEAKER: The leader is warned.
