Flinders Fertility

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:54): My question is to the Minister for Health. Does the minister stand by his comment that Flinders Fertility is a private facility?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries) (14:54): Yes, I do. It is private. It is true that the government has shares but we don't in any way control or exercise any control over that particular company. Yes, we do have shares; that is just part of the history of the formation of that particular company. I think we have one person who sits on the board, but other than that it is for all intents and purposes a private company.

Ms CHAPMAN: Supplementary?

The SPEAKER: The member for Napier.
