In reply to the Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (16 February 2021).

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing): I have been advised:

In addition to my statement that misuse would be a breach of the Public Sector Code of Ethics, and may result in disciplinary proceedings, misuse of this data may also constitute offences under s93 of the Health Care Act 2008, s99 of the South Australian Public Health Act 2011, and s31A of the Emergency Management Act 2004, all of which have penalties against them. Access to this data is highly restricted and controlled to reduce the risk of misuse.
