Ministerial Staff

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (15:07): I seek leave to make a brief explanation prior to directing a question to the Minister for Water on the subject of ministerial office.

Leave granted.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: The Government Gazette on 22 June of this year lists a Mr Bradley Chilcott as a ministerial adviser in the minister's office. My questions to the minister are as follows:

1. Is Mr Bradley Chilcott still employed in the minister's office?

2. If he is not, when did Mr Bradley Chilcott leave his employment in the minister's office?

3. If he has left, did he resign, or was his position terminated?

4. Was there any termination payment made to Mr Bradley Chilcott, if he has left the employment in the minister's office ?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (15:08): I thank the honourable member for his most important question. The answers are no; a month or two ago; he left of his own accord; and not that I know of.
