The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:24): Supplementary: who approves the appointment of public servants, including Mr Martin and Mr Mentha?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:24): I am happy to take that on notice but my understanding is that all of the 40,000, approximately, employees in SA Health and its networks are technically appointed by Chris McGowan, the Chief Executive of SA Health. If that is not the case, I will advise, but my understanding is that delegations below that level are by delegation, if you like, from his role.
