Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (14:51): My question is to the Premier. Does the Premier agree with NationBuilder on its website that it 'uses cookies to personalise content, provide social media features and analyse our web traffic. We also share information about your use of our site with our marketing and analytics partners'?

The SPEAKER: I will just indicate to the member for Kaurna that he appears to be introducing facts and he might like to seek leave to do so.

Mr PICTON: I seek leave to introduce facts before asking a question.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, members on my right! The member for Kaurna has sought leave. Is leave granted?

Leave granted.

The SPEAKER: I think the member for Kaurna might have adequately addressed matters to his satisfaction. If he wishes, he might repeat those matters.

Mr PICTON: No, that's fine.

The SPEAKER: Otherwise, I will give the Premier the opportunity.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:52): The shadow minister for health doesn't come in here asking questions about COVID vaccinations, he doesn't ask questions about health, not about jobs or the economy: he asks about cookies. I have answered this a couple of times. I'm not a cookie expert—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: I'm not the cookie king. I do not have a lot of detailed information about cookies. Maybe the member for Kaurna—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, member for Mawson!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —might like to tell us all about cookies in the Labor Party or cookies on his website. I think Labor people have been looking at some interesting websites recently. I'm looking forward to the Leader of the Opposition making a statement about that fairly soon. There have been some interesting developments on that side of the house, which of course the Leader of the Opposition has not brought to the house's attention. Maybe that's something that—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, the member for Playford!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —he might like to do. All we have today are questions about cookies and, as I said in answers to previous questions, I'm not an expert but if those opposite would like to provide some information. I note that you, sir, in your very generous way, looking after this important chamber on behalf of the people of South Australia, gave the shadow minister, the member for Kaurna, the opportunity to seek leave to introduce some facts. He failed to and, in fact, he asked to seek leave to ask a question—

The SPEAKER: The Premier will resume his seat. The member for Lee rises on a point of order.

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN: This is clearly debate, sir. It has no relevance whatsoever to the question that was put to the Premier.

The SPEAKER: I uphold the point of order. The question, including facts introduced with leave, went to a particular subject matter that I think is clearly understood. The Premier has the call. The Premier will direct his answer to the question. I think the Premier has concluded his answer.
