Mr PISONI (Unley) (15:45): A supplementary, sir: has the minister or her department contacted the informant since her statutory declaration was received by the minister on 9 February?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector) (15:45): I personally have not, although I know that you did recommend that course of action. The member for Unley recommended that course of action, but I have not contacted that person. The board—and I don't want to be fussy or pedantic about this—unlike most other states we have a separate board that does the registration of these organisations as opposed to being part of the department, and that is because the department runs some businesses that the board registers, so we have that separation. I will find out if it is the board that would be part of the response to the previous question you asked.
