          <by role="member" id="3130">The Hon. M.C. PARNELL:</by>  Two weeks ago, I spoke in this chamber about a report released by the Swiss-based human rights NGO the Bruno Manser Fund, entitled 'The Adelaide Hilton Case: how a Malaysian politician's family laundered $30 million in South Australia'. My question for the Attorney-General is: has the South Australian government taken any steps to investigate the alleged money-laundering activity identified in the report or to refer this matter to appropriate federal law enforcement agencies?</text>
