          <by role="member" id="3164">The Hon. S.G. WADE (14:33): </by> My question is to the Minister for State/Local Government Relations and relates to Burnside council. Given that the Freedom of Information Act contains an exemption clause for information relating to personal affairs, why is the minister using the disclosure of personal affairs as an excuse for maintaining FOI restrictions prohibiting scrutiny of the establishment of the Burnside council investigation, specifically government processes?</text>
