Green Industries SA

Mr WHETSTONE (Chaffey) (14:24): Supplementary to the Minister for Environment and Water: minister, when will the government update the status of Green Industries' flood clean-up progress page, which has now not been updated for two months?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Point of order, sir: standing order 97. The question purports to introduce facts into the question, and I ask the member to rephrase his question.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. D.G. Pisoni interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, member for Unley! I am going to give the member the opportunity to rephrase the question.

Mr WHETSTONE: Thank you, sir. Minister, when will the government update the status of the Green Industries' flood clean-up progress page? With your leave, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr WHETSTONE: The page has now not been updated for two months.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Point of order, sir: standing order 97. A member may not offer argument or opinion, nor may any member offer any facts except by leave of the house and only so far as is necessary to explain the question. The member has introduced facts that are not substantiated.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! That may be; however, there is a very practical way to resolve this matter, and that's just to ask the question without introducing any material beyond that. If the member for Chaffey wishes to press leave, then of course that can be resolved in a different way, but it strikes me that the question stands alone.

Mr WHETSTONE: Thank you, sir. Again, when will the government update the status of the Green Industries' flood clean-up progress page?

The SPEAKER: That question is in order.

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Premier, Minister for Industry, Innovation and Science, Minister for Defence and Space Industries, Minister for Climate, Environment and Water) (14:26): I am looking at the page itself and can't see a date on it. I will find out whether it is in fact older and whether it requires updating.

The Hon. J.A.W. Gardner interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Morialta is on three warnings.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!
