ENTERPRISE PATIENT ADMINISTRATION SYSTEM

Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (14:46): A supplementary, sir.

The SPEAKER: Supplementary.

Mr MARSHALL: Has Allscripts threatened or lodged a multimillion dollar counterclaim against the South Australian government?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health and Ageing, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Veterans' Affairs) (14:46): I will double check, but not that I have been advised.

The Hon. A. Koutsantonis interjecting:

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: There certainly were issues with the billing module for the Allscripts program, which resulted in delays to the rollout. We have been in discussions with Allscripts. I will double check, but I do not think that those discussions have got to the stage where any legal claims have been made by either party, but I will double check that and get back to the Leader of the Opposition.

The SPEAKER: The Minister for Transport should not assist the Minister for Health in his answers and I warn him for the first time. Supplementary from the leader.
