Privatisation

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:29): Supplementary: given the disaster of the privatisation of ETSA, overseen by the Hon. Rob Lucas—

The PRESIDENT: There is an assumption in there. Recraft it, the Hon. Ms Scriven.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Can the Treasurer explain why the current Liberal government is once again privatising assets?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (14:30): I can only repeat what I have just said ad nauseam to the Leader of the Opposition. For the Hon. Ms Scriven to be critical of any party or government that makes a decision in relation to privatisation stinks and smells of rank hypocrisy.

The Hon. C.M. Scriven: Your hypocrisy.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: No, the hypocrisy of the Labor Party. I challenge the Hon. Ms Scriven or indeed any member of the Labor Party to stand up before the good people of Mount Gambier and tell the people of Mount Gambier that they are a party that doesn't believe in privatisation and that they didn't privatise the forests in the South-East of South Australia. Good luck!

The Hon. C.M. Scriven: Your decision; your responsibility

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: Good luck!
