          <by role="member" id="3164">The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:17):</by>  Certainly, on the public record, particularly in the Eastern States, there have been concerning developments in terms of community relations. I want to stress that the Chinese community within Australia, like any Australians, is being strongly supportive of the government's efforts to maintain public health. I have certainly heard, through the assistant minister and through Chinese leaders, concern about healthy community relations within South Australia, but I think it is a great credit to the people of South Australia that these concerns are not as significant as they are in other states.</text>
