Mr ODENWALDER (Elizabeth) (16:07): My question is again to the Minister for Correctional Services. Has the minister sought a briefing from the government's private operator Serco as to the circumstances of the escape and is he satisfied with that response?

The Hon. V.A. TARZIA (Hartley—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services) (16:07): I think I am starting to repeat myself a bit here but, as I said, there is a comprehensive investigation. I will certainly await that report. My office has certainly been in contact—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. V.A. TARZIA: —with relevant stakeholders, as you would appreciate, sir, and when I have more to update then of course, if it's appropriate, I will provide an update to the house.

The SPEAKER: Before I call the member for Davenport, I call to order the member for Kaurna and I warn the member for Badcoe.
