Mounted Operations Unit

Mr BATTY (Bragg) (14:24): Are any of those options that are being considered in the Adelaide Parklands and, if so, how many?

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:25): I thank the member for Bragg for his question. We are looking at every option that is available to us. I am happy to stand corrected on this but, from the best of my recollection, the legislation that passed the parliament was supported by those opposite, maybe even including the member for Bragg. That legislation facilitated for the Minister for Health to identify an area, including on the Parklands. I don't recall the member for Bragg at any point expressing his opposition to that provision in the bill, and—

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for Unley!

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS: —if the member for Bragg feels as strongly about this as he may currently like to purport, he could have moved an amendment to that bill. I think he failed to do so. So all kudos to the member for Bragg for being all bluff and bluster and not much substance when it comes to this issue.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, member for Morphett! Member for Heysen! Member for Morialta, I suspect the member for Bragg might very well raise a point of order in your place but, nevertheless, I will hear you first.

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER: Standing order 98: the Premier is very embarrassed about this situation and is debating to try to cover his shame.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! That seems to me to be an argument or an opinion, not a point of order; however, I will bring the Premier to the question, unless he has concluded his answer. Very well. I call the member for Mawson.
