CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL REPORT

Mr GRIFFITHS (Goyder) (14:56): My question is for the Treasurer.

The Hon. K.O. Foley interjecting:

Mr GRIFFITHS: I am glad he is excited about it. Why were unexplained adjustments totalling $322 million made to the government's recently tabled 2006-07 consolidated financial report? The Auditor-General qualified the Treasurer's 2006-07 consolidated financial report stating in his letter to the Under Treasurer that 'there is no objective information that supports' an adjustment of $159 million to the net operating result and, further, 'the Department of Treasury and Finance could not explain the variance' of $163 million to revaluation of capital.

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY (Port Adelaide—Deputy Premier, Treasurer, Minister for Industry and Trade, Minister for Federal/State Relations) (14:57): I will obtain an answer for the member on that detailed question.
