Thebarton Police Barracks

Mr TELFER (Flinders) (14:52): My question is to the Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services. Have other sites been considered for the relocation of the police barracks and, if so, will the minister reveal them? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr TELFER: Earlier this year the Ombudsman ordered SAPOL to release 19 documents relating to the relocation of the Thebarton Police Barracks but this has not been done to date.

The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS (Cheltenham—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services) (14:53): On the latter part of the member's question—albeit not a question but a statement—regarding the FOI from SAPOL, as the member may or probably will not be aware, ministers are not responsible for their agencies' FOIs, and our agencies are entirely responsible for fulfilling their obligations.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS: But to go directly to the member's question—

The SPEAKER: Minister, please be seated. The member for Colton has exceeded the permissible number of warnings, and will depart under 137A. Minister, you have the call.

The honourable member for Colton having withdrawn from the chamber:

The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS: But directly to the member's question: have other sites been considered? Of course they have, sir.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! The member for Flinders and then the member for Newland.
