LUCAS Legislative Council MINISTERIAL STAFF The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (15:06): I have a supplementary question arising out of the minister's attempted answer. Given that the minister already has Mr Michael Irvine, ministerial liaison officer for industrial relations, is that position being terminated given that he is now taking on Jimmy Watson to do exactly the same job? The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY Legislative Council Minister for Industrial Relations Minister for State/Local Government Relations MINISTERIAL STAFF The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (15:07): Michael Irvine is my liaison with SafeWork SA. He comes from SafeWork SA. Jimmy Watson's skills and experience relate back a number of decades and he has a very good relationship with employee and employer representatives. That is where his value in my office lies.
