Question Time

Government Ministers

The Hon. D.J. SPEIRS (Black—Leader of the Opposition) (14:08): Happy birthday to the member for Elder. My question is to the Premier. Is the Premier confident that all his ministers are across the portfolio briefs? Sir, with your leave, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

The Hon. D.J. SPEIRS:The Advertiser reported on 6 October:

Senior government sources said concerns centred on an unnamed Labor minister being 'unable to satisfactorily answer questions' from [the Governor].

Was it the Minister for Human Services? Was it the Minister for Local Government? Was it the Minister for Planning? Premier, which minister was it?

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! The Premier has the call.

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:09): I feel very privileged to be able to lead an extraordinary group of South Australians who are dedicated to their portfolios as well as their broader responsibilities. Each and every one of our members of the cabinet has been expeditious and diligent in undertaking all their functions in a way that accords with the best principles of cabinet government.
