SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:26):</by>  I have had a number of interactions both with local government bodies, with my colleagues in the other place who have direct responsibility, for example, for health, the member for Kaurna, and these are issues that the government is progressing. Of course, we know that the former government here, the now opposition, doesn't really like to talk about health issues usually because they did such a bad job when they were in government—such a bad job that this became the defining issue of the 2022 election, so it is really quite remarkable that they want to bring that up.</text>
