Question Time

Construction Industry

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:04): My question is to the Premier. Has the Premier seen John Setka's comments that the fears of South Australian builders about the expansion of Incolink into South Australia are unfounded? If so, what is his response? With your leave, and that of the house, I will explain, sir.

Leave granted.

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER:The Advertiser recently reported that John Setka, CFMEU state secretary and a director of Incolink, said, 'I don't see what the downside is. I can't understand what the hysteria is, I think it's people being a bit parochial.' He then went on to compare Incolink to a Rolls Royce scheme and the BIRST scheme to what he described as a 'rusted-out VH Holden'.

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:04): No, I haven't seen the remarks from John Setka to which you refer.

The SPEAKER: I might also add, deputy leader, that I am not certain as to what exactly it is that is being inquired of in terms of the Premier's responsibility to the house or in respect of his ministerial responsibilities. Those may be matters you are coming to.
