HEALTH DEPARTMENT STAFF

Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (14:38): My question is to the Minister for Health and Ageing. Has SA Health received yet another probity complaint in the last four months about the short-term employment of an employee from a major IT equipment supplier to SA Health in a position where that employee has access to confidential pricing and other sensitive information about competitive firms?

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) (14:38): Certainly not that I recall has that been brought to my attention. One of the first things we did was to make sure that a probity adviser was appointed to the EPAS project, and as far as I am aware nothing has been raised with me, but I will check if anything else has been raised in the department. I am happy to report back if I am incorrect.
