Australian Craniofacial Unit

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (15:00): Supplementary to the minister again: why has Professor David David told the opposition in the last 20 minutes that he was not aware of an independent review and had no opportunity to contribute to such an independent review?

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining) (15:00): The straightforward reality is I don't know why Dr David David told the opposition something in his situation, but what I said is that he has had every opportunity to contribute to the review.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for West Torrens, you are on two warnings. The minister has the call.

The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN: He would have had every opportunity to contribute to the review, and now I have also shared with the house the fact that he has spoken and met with the Minister for Health. For the shadow minister, I don't know why he would have said what he said to you. But do you know what? Do you know what you could do? Instead of coming to parliament to ask that question, why don't you ask him? Why don't you ask him, shadow minister, why he told you that? That would be a much better use of parliament's time.

If the shadow minister genuinely really wants the answer to that question, why doesn't he go to the source? Why come to parliament and ask me why Dr David David told him something? Why doesn't he ask Dr David David why he told him that? I honestly can't add anything more to the answer to that question than that.
