DRIVING RECORD

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:51): My question is to the Minister for Correctional Services. Were the minister's public statements on ABC Radio on 20 April 2009 about his history of traffic offences truthful? On that date the minister told ABC Radio program presenter Matthew Abraham that there were no offences other than the 32 revealed in the Sunday Mail. Mr Abraham asked: 'And are there more offences?' The member said, 'I don't think there are but we're going to check. If there are, there will be full disclosure. I'm not trying to hide anything.' Mr Abraham said, 'There's talk of, what, another dozen?' The member for West Torrens said, 'No'—

The Hon. P.F. CONLON: Sir, I rise on a point of order. The lengthy recitation of a radio interview is not necessary to explain the question.

The SPEAKER: Yes; I think the question is pretty self-explanatory.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Gambling, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers, Minister Assisting the Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (14:52): I will get a copy of my ministerial statement and read it to the member for Unley personally. I have made a comprehensive statement to the parliament.
