Commissioner for Public Sector Employment

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:16): Can the minister confirm that the eCabinet system ECO still indicates that the minister's cabinet submission of 7 April, which indicated that she would propose in a future cabinet submission that Ms Erma Ranieri be appointed as Commissioner for Public Sector Employment, was approved by cabinet?

Mr Pengilly: Get ready, Lisa.

The SPEAKER: The member for Finniss is called to order.

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:16): One of the difficulties I have in sitting in this place is understanding what supplementaries constitute. I understood that they were coming from the answer but, given that I can't see how that could have possibly come out of my previous two or three answers to the same supplementaries—

Members interjecting:

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE: I won’t be discussing cabinet matters. You don't get access to cabinet documents by asking questions here.

Mr MARSHALL: Final supplementary, sir.

The SPEAKER: No, just another question.

Mr MARSHALL: Another question.

The SPEAKER: Just a plain old question.
