Coronavirus Contact Tracing

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): Supplementary arising from the answer where the minister referred to the SA Public Health Act and the Health Care Act: minister, what protections do provisions of those acts afford any information collected by contact tracers?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:33): My understanding is that both acts put a duty on officers to maintain the confidentiality of the people with whom they deal.
