GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS, PROBITY

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (15:28): I have a supplementary question arising out of that answer. Is the minister saying that the guidelines he just read out would allow him, as a minister, to attend a Labor Party fundraising function organised by South Australian Progressive Business—

The PRESIDENT: Order! The minister did not say that.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: I am just asking a question.

The PRESIDENT: No; you are trying to put words in the minister's mouth.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: No, I am not.

The PRESIDENT: The minister did not say that. He quite clearly answered that part—

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: Would you like to ask the question for me, Mr President?

The PRESIDENT: The minister quite clearly answered that part of the question.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: Would you like to ask the question for me, Mr President?

The PRESIDENT: The question is not directed to the President.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: Exactly. So, as a supplementary question to the leader arising out of his answer, is he indicating—not has he or did he—that the guidelines he outlined to the council would allow him, as a minister, to attend a Labor Party fundraising function organised by South Australian Progressive Business that was hosted and paid for by a company associated with one of the bidders for a major government contract?

The PRESIDENT: I remind members it is a repeat of a previous question.

The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning, Minister for Small Business) (15:30): I assume it is a hypothetical question, in which case it is out of order.
