SA Health

The Hon. C. BONAROS (15:01): Can the Treasurer also confirm how much has been spent on administrators to date?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:01): On administrators?

The Hon. C. BONAROS: KordaMentha.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: If the question is in relation to KordaMentha, I would have to refer that to my colleague the honourable Minister for Health. I think he has put a figure on the table. My recollection is that it was $18 million, but he has also indicated how much money has already been saved from that wise investment on behalf of the taxpayers of South Australia. Again, KordaMentha's expertise is in financial management, accounting, those sorts of issues. It is not the area of expertise of a lawyer and the ICAC commissioner.
