Privatisation

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:15): I am happy to persist, Mr Speaker. My question is to the Premier. Did the Premier mislead the people of South Australia when he stated on ABC radio on 10 October last year, 'No, nope, we won't be selling off an asset'?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:16): Again, I find it difficult to understand.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, members on my left!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: We are not selling off an asset. We are making it very clear we are not. When the opposition were in government, they did sell off the Lands Titles Office and they did enter into a very long-term—was it three or four rotations?

Members interjecting:

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: Three rotations.

The Hon. A. Koutsantonis: It's a lease.

The SPEAKER: The Premier will be seated.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: Three rotations.

The SPEAKER: The Premier will be seated. The Member for West Torrens will not refer to members as geese. Is the Premier finished?

The Hon. S.S. Marshall: Sure.

The SPEAKER: Leader of the Opposition.
