Mr TELFER (Flinders) (14:30): My question is again to the Premier. Has the Premier received any advice as to whether entities connected to Sanjeev Gupta will receive payment of their debts before other unsecured creditors through the administrative process?

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:30): That is a matter for the administrator. I guess what we have sought to do is to secure our position. When I say 'our position', I mean the South Australian government's position, and we have done that. We are a first-ranking creditor. We have first call, along with the commonwealth, through the funding of the administrator, and then our debts, the amounts owed to us through royalties and SA Water, we have a high ranking on. Again, that was to help facilitate—

Mr Telfer: And the other secured stuff you have—

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS: In terms of the local South Australian creditors, which is the vast bulk of them that are under that $5 million range, that will be worked out in conjunction with all the other creditors and will be determined by the administrator.
