Veterans SA

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:15): My question is to the Premier. Where will the Premier be taking advice on matters relating to veterans when the Premier has sacked retired Colonel Chris Burns, retired Lieutenant Colonel Greg Nettleton and retired Lieutenant Commander Malcolm Jackman from state government executive positions and can't guarantee the security of Mr Rob Manton?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:15): Another extraordinarily poor question from the Leader of the Opposition. He has just had a couple of weeks off. I know it has been a difficult couple of weeks. There was that moment on 18 May—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —that put him behind the eight ball.

Mr Brown interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Playford is warned.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: The reality is that I take advice from many very senior veterans in South Australia. In fact, we are very pleased to have a Veterans Advisory Council in South Australia and a Veterans Health Advisory Council in South Australia. More than that, get out to your local RSL, the local sub-branch. Speak to our veterans—

The SPEAKER: I do.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —who have contributed so much to our state. I really enjoy it, sir. I know that you enjoy it at your RSLs. Perhaps some of those opposite could enjoy this same opportunity that we have enjoyed in the past.
