Member for Waite

Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:30): My question is to the Attorney-General. Did the Hon. Connie Bonaros ask the Attorney-General to withhold any details of information she conveyed about the allegations of the behaviour by the member for Waite—to withhold that information, any of it, from the Premier?

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General) (14:30): I certainly don't recall any request of that nature at all but, again, I won't be going into the detail of what she did convey to me.

The Hon. Z.L. Bettison interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Member for Ramsay!

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN: I undertook to do as she requested, and that is report it to the Premier. That is entirely consistent with what I have done on other occasions and that is precisely what I did. That, as we now know as a matter of public record, is a matter the particulars of which are now being looked at by the South Australian police and so for obvious reasons it wouldn't be appropriate that I make any further comment in relation to the information that came to my attention. But, in any event, I assure the house that the process of what was undertaken in relation to that matter was entirely consistent with what I have done on previous occasions.
