State Major Bank Levy

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:43): Does the minister disagree with industry and believe that this tax will improve South Australia's business reputation?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (14:43): Yes.

The Hon. J.M.A. Lensink: You're a fool!

The PRESIDENT: Order! That's totally uncalled for. The Hon. Mr Wade.

The Hon. K.J. Maher interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! Will the Leader of the Government desist. The Hon. Mr Wade has the floor. Allow him to ask a question.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! Take a seat, Hon. Mr Wade. I think I have said this quite a number of times. It's very disrespectful to be talking while a member is asking a question. Allow the member to ask the question and then the minister can proceed to answer it. The Hon. Mr Wade.
