The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Energy and Mining North-South Corridor The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:54): I didn't mention any delays: I said that we were conducting a review. Members interjecting: The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Well, a new time line could be— An honourable member interjecting: The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: As my learned friend says, it could accelerate some parts of the project. The Deputy Speaker House of Assembly The DEPUTY SPEAKER: Could the Minister for Human Services and the member for Chaffey— The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: I have to say that the agitation of members opposite coming from these leaks is getting pretty pronounced now. There is a certain level of agitation going on. The Hon. S.C. Mullighan House of Assembly The Hon. S.C. Mullighan: It’s set the hares running. The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: It has set the hares running. Who could possibly leak such information? But there have been no such leaks from our cabinet. Our cabinet is watertight— The Hon. S.C. Mullighan House of Assembly The Hon. S.C. Mullighan: That's right, united. The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Watertight and united. There are no individuals. We are a team. There is no-one out there trying to promote themselves. The Deputy Speaker House of Assembly The DEPUTY SPEAKER: There is a point of order. Mr GARDNER House of Assembly Mr GARDNER: Standing order 98. The Deputy Speaker House of Assembly The DEPUTY SPEAKER: Has the minister concluded his response? The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: I have lots more to talk about this leak. I reject the inference of the question that there will be delays. I reject the inference of the question. What I have said is that members opposite propose to have some suburbs living in the shade while they are building tunnels, and we are looking at those overpasses to make sure we get them right. That doesn't mean delays. What it means is that we are doing a job properly, and for members opposite, who have not put a shovel in the ground, to be attempting to criticise us, I think, quite frankly, is dishonest of them. Why don't they just accept nothing happened— The Deputy Speaker House of Assembly The DEPUTY SPEAKER: There is a point of order, minister. Mr GARDNER House of Assembly Mr GARDNER: That is clearly in contravention of standing order 98. The Deputy Speaker House of Assembly The DEPUTY SPEAKER: I think the minister has probably answered the question.
