Service SA

Ms BEDFORD (Florey) (15:06): How many spatial dollars do you spend now keeping the Modbury office open each year?

An honourable member: Like Bitcoins.

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning) (15:07): S-p-a-t-i-a-l. I don't have the exact figure on me, but the savings task over the 2018-19 year is $2.15 million that we need to save from across the network.

Ms Bedford: So you will be able to give me the answer?

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL: Sure. There are estimates going on next week and we discuss those things in detail. There's about half an hour, as I understand it, for Service SA. No doubt I am going to get these questions. But, member for Florey, these are not easy decisions to make at all, and we are not shying away from that, but this is what happens. This is how you put a budget back in the black.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for Hurtle Vale.
