        <text id="20240910ddb9297badeb494c80000104">1.&amp;#x9;Has the Premier or any government minister increased their security or been advised to increase their security in the last three months?</text>
        <text id="20240910ddb9297badeb494c80000105">2.&amp;#x9;Has the war begun between the political wing and the industrial wing of the South Australian Labor Party?</text>
