Data Harvesting

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:15): My question is for the Premier. Does the Premier maintain that he is not the subject of an investigation by the Ombudsman as a result of an ICAC referral in relation to the misuse of data by his office? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: The Ombudsman, Mr Wayne Lines, last month confirmed to the Crime and Public Integrity Policy Committee that he had commenced an investigation into the Premier's office as a result of a referral from the Office for Public Integrity into possible misconduct or maladministration in relation to misuse of data within the Premier's office.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:16): I note that the member for West Torrens has made that assertion in the public domain. I think it's completely and utterly incorrect—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —but I will not be making any comment on this matter whatsoever.
