LABOR LEADERSHIP

Mr PISONI (Unley) (15:19): My question is to the Premier. Did the Premier have a meeting at the home of The Advertiser journalist Miles Kemp and his wife, minister Grace Portolesi, where they discussed the issue of the appropriate time to move against former premier Mike Rann?

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Minister for State Development) (15:19): Were things going so badly today that they had to call on the member for Unley? Were things going that badly? I thought we were talking about Holden's; but no, apparently we are not.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL: I have a little question: do you want Holden's in South Australia or not?

Members interjecting:

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL: Yes or no?

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for Davenport.

The Hon. I.F. EVANS: Standing order 98: debate. Clearly the answer has nothing to do with the question.

The SPEAKER: Order! I think the question invited all sorts of responses. It was a very personal question and I do not think the Premier needed to answer it. Have you finished, Premier?

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for Ashford.
