Question Time

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (15:10): My question is to the Minister for Education. In future, will the government advise the opposition of ministers who will not be present in question time, as has been the past practice of the house as a courtesy to the opposition, so we know how to formulate our questions and to whom they are to be formulated?

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education) (15:10): The opposition will be advised of ministers who aren't going to be in question time. I make it clear that the Attorney-General has been, for a period during question time today, representing the Minister for Police. The opposition, however, is yet to ask a question of the Minister for Police that would be appropriately asked of him.
