Matter of Privilege

Matter of Privilege

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (15:12): On 16 November, before question time the Deputy Premier tabled a ministerial statement targeting a select committee of this house, myself, the member for Mawson and the member for Enfield. Within it, there are reflections on members that breach standing orders. The tabling of the ministerial statement was tabled as a device rather than be read out, lest leave be withdrawn.

I ask that you consider these matters and whether devices can be used like that, to be tabled, which can avoid members exercising their right to withdraw leave to not allow this type of behaviour to happen again.

The SPEAKER: The member for West Torrens has addressed me on a matter of privilege. I ask the member to furnish me with any additional materials and other members to provide additional materials. I will give the matter consideration and return to the house.
