Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Coronavirus Contact Tracing Coronavirus Contact Tracing The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition Coronavirus Contact Tracing The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:25): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of the Minister for Health and Wellbeing regarding public health. Leave granted. The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council The Hon. K.J. MAHER: At a press conference the Premier claimed that a person who provided information to contact tracers was a person who, and I quote, 'deliberately misled our contact tracing team, their story added up and we now know they lied'. Minister, if your own department, for which you are responsible, has claimed privilege on information provided by this person to contact tracers, how on earth did the Premier have the information that led him to make these conclusions? The Hon. S.G. WADE Legislative Council Minister for Health and Wellbeing The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:26): I would refer the honourable member to the statement by Assistant Commissioner Peter Harvey issued on 2 December at 4.38pm. I quote: The initial investigation indicated the first conversation with contact tracers was misleading. That conversation was central to information provided by SA Health to decision makers preceding the lockdown.
