Private Legal Matters

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:53): My question is to the Attorney-General. Does the Attorney-General agree with the evidence given by her chief executive, Ms Caroline Mealor, that government resources should not be used for personal legal matters by government-employed lawyers?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General) (14:53): Well, I think it would be helpful—

Mr Malinauskas interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Leader!

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: —for the member for West Torrens to actually read the transcript of what the chief executive said—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: —in expressing her commentary in relation to that matter and, when he has read it, I am happy for him to review the question.
