I think there have been some good questions today, some good answers today, and the fact that we have been able to hear both sides I think is a good thing. I'm sure people in the gallery agree. Let's just keep the noise level down. The interjections are not parliamentary.</text>

This review is being conducted with South Australia Police. South Australia Police will cooperate with the department and the department will cooperate with them. Once the report is completed, I will take a report to cabinet and we will make a decision then.</text>
        <text id="2024082740e7a1582d1d4cfd90000517">It's fair to say that thus far we have found no evidence of the accusations members opposite are making. If they have evidence of organised crime involved in any government contract, I would ask members to stand up in the parliament, under parliamentary privilege, give any documents that they have to the government—make them public if you like—and put up or shut up.</text>
