Matter of Privilege

Matter of Privilege

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (15:05): The Minister for Transport and Infrastructure informed the house that Keolis Downer was awarded a contract in South Australia in 2011. That is not accurate.

The SPEAKER: What I will do is conduct relevant inquiries at my end.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for West Torrens can leave and the Minister for Primary Industries can also leave right now for five minutes while I deal with what is a very serious accusation and deserves the attention of the house immediately.

The honourable members for West Torrens and Chaffey having withdrawn from the chamber:

The SPEAKER: Any member is able to refer a matter of privilege to me. What I will do is conduct relevant inquiries at my end to see whether there is prima facie a matter of privilege.
