Matter of Privilege

Matter of Privilege

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:23): I rise on a matter of privilege.

The SPEAKER: The member for West Torrens on a matter of privilege.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: The Premier just said that he was at the opening of the Turner from the Tate awaiting the Premier, Mike Rann. Media reports show that that occurred in May 2013 when the Hon. Jay Weatherill was Premier.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for West Torrens.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Further to my matter of privilege, I ask if you could please assess in the Hansard the Premier's answer to the question and the relevant dates and report back to the house if a prima facie case exists.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, members on the government side!

The Hon. V.A. Chapman interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Attorney!

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: If you could, sir, come back to the house and inform us whether a prima facie case exists for the Premier deliberately misleading the parliament to make a political point.

The SPEAKER: A matter of privilege has been raised, and I ask the member to provide me or furnish me with any materials relevant to that matter. I will consider those materials and return to the house with an answer.
