HOLLOWAY (Minister for Police, Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning) (14:53):</by>  I will refer that question on. The honourable member's supplementary question reminds me that the Hon. Rob Lucas's earlier question talked about 'the Rann government this and the Rann government that' in relation to such matters.</text>
        <text id="200804036c10dc532ba144b780000110">Under the Public Sector Management Act, staff issues are matters for the chief executives of organisations. That legislation goes back to the time of the mid-nineties, when the last major revision of the act covered some of these issues and when the previous government was in power. These sorts of questions relating to staff discipline and the like are under acts of parliament, for which everybody in this parliament is responsible, and they are the responsibility of chief executives.</text>
