South Australian Multicultural and Ethnic Affairs Commission

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (15:15): Is the expression of interest being called for as a result of the fact that a number of the SAMEAC members have expressed concerns about the new structure of SAMEAC?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:15): We don't make decisions on the basis of those sorts of claims being made by the Hon. Mr Wortley, correct or otherwise. This government makes decisions in the interests of the people of South Australia and we are just being flexible, as I said, in catering for all circumstances. We don't want to end up in a set of circumstances where we don't have a functioning commission.
