The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (15:07): Why weren't processes in place already to ensure changes in staff did not result in failures of basic procedures?

The PRESIDENT: You did touch on that, Attorney.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector, Special Minister of State) (15:07): I am happy to refer the honourable member to not just the answer I gave but the reasons given in the judgement. I think they explain it pretty thoroughly.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! I hope you are referring to the Attorney and not me.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Stop it. Enough!
