Will the Premier now reconsider his government's decision not to provide additional funding to ICAC to investigate SA Health in light of charges announced by ICAC today? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order, the member for Schubert! Leave granted. Mr PICTON House of Assembly Mr PICTON: Today, the ICAC announced 25 charges against a surgeon for deception over allegedly inaccurate time sheets. In 2018, this government refused a request from the ICAC for an investigation into SA Health. The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Premier Attorney-General Minister for Planning and Local Government The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (14:41): I will say that Commissioner Vanstone has made a public statement today confirming the charges that have been referred to, and that obviously is a pending matter now for the proper court processes in relation to it. I note that there has been some media coverage already about it. Members would be aware from that that it's now under investigation, so I don't make any further comment.
