Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:23): Given that the Treasurer is responsible for this line in the budget, can he outline to the house today what the total budget for the EPAS project is for this current financial year?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business) (14:23): I don't have that here with me, but I will get it for you.

Mr Marshall: You are responsible for this.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: I tell you what, Mr Speaker. How about I hold a press conference straight after question time and I will front the cameras and I will tell them what the budget is for Transforming Health if the Leader of the Opposition fronts the cameras and tells everyone who advised him that the police commissioner liked his amendments.

Mr PISONI: Point of order: 128, irrelevant and repetition.

The SPEAKER: No, I don't uphold the point of order.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: No, it was new material. The Treasurer is engaging in hyperbole, but not outside standing orders. The leader.
