Local Government Grants Commission

Mr GRIFFITHS (Goyder) (15:04): We all received one, Geoff. We all received one. Again, the question is to the Minister for Local Government, sir.

Mr Marshall interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Goyder.

Mr GRIFFITHS: To all members, the letter went to all members. Again, a question to the Minister for Local Government: given that the minister presented the 2014-15 Annual Report of the SA Local Government Grants Commission to the house on Tuesday 12 April, can the minister explain why this report was late in being delivered to the parliament as it is required to be delivered to you by 30 September in that previous year, and you have 12 sitting days to present it to the parliament.

The Hon. G.G. BROCK (Frome—Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Local Government) (15:05): I thank the member for his question. I am very aware of the time frame. I will get an answer as to why it was delayed. There were some requests, but I can get that and bring it back to the house.

Mr Pengilly interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Finniss is warned for the second and final time. The member for Schubert.
