McGowan, Dr C.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:25): Supplementary: has the minister asked his Chief Executive of SA Health, Dr Chris McGowan, why he dated his resignation statement from Silver Chain Corporate Services Pty Ltd as signed on 4 May 2018 even though he signed those documents over two months later on 16 July 2018, and if he has not asked him why, why hasn't he asked that question?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:25): The reason why I haven't interrogated Mr McGowan is because the commissioner for public employment is the appropriate person to deal with these issues. The commissioner for public employment is an independent guardian of public sector values.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order, members of the opposition! I cannot hear the minister.

The Hon. S.G. WADE: It is appropriate that she consider the matters.

The PRESIDENT: One more supplementary, the Hon. Ms Scriven.
