Elective Surgery

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:41): Supplementary question: why does the minister say one thing to the paper and won't back it up in this chamber? Does he take us for mugs or is he not telling the truth to The Advertiser

The PRESIDENT: That's gone beyond—

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: —and to the public of South Australia—

The PRESIDENT: Leader of the Opposition—

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: —because he's not game to put it on the record in here?

The PRESIDENT: Leader of the Opposition, you are out of order. The first part of the question was appropriate. Minister.

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:42): Elective surgery will be delivered on Thursday—

The Hon. K.J. Maher interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Leader of the Opposition, I cannot hear—

The Hon. S.G. WADE: —in accordance with the industrial tribunal.

The PRESIDENT: Leader of the Opposition, I couldn't hear what the minister was saying.

The Hon. R.P. Wortley: As long as Hansard has got it, that's all that matters.

The PRESIDENT: I am not sure Hansard could. Please stop interjecting, the Hon. Mr Wortley.
