Mr BASHAM (Finniss) (17:01): My question is again to the Premier. Did the government pay for Mr Anderson to visit South Australia and have you, as Premier, met with him?

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (17:01): I am happy just to verify that, but the advice I have received up until this point is I think we have made a contribution. Certainly, the CEO of PIRSA, Mehdi Doroudi, made clear to me that there was an opportunity to be able to have the professor come to South Australia. He floated the proposition with me and I thought it would be a worthwhile exercise. I think there is a meeting with the task force that we've got, as we do on Thursdays. I think I am right in saying that we might have contributed to the cost of his travel, but I am happy to take that on notice just to make sure I am providing accurate information to the house.
