Question Time

South Australian Multicultural and Ethnic Affairs Commission

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (15:06): My question is to the minister assisting the Premier in multicultural affairs. Does the assistant minister stand by her and her government's appointments to the board of the South Australian Multicultural and Ethnic Affairs Commission (SAMEAC)? Before those appointments were made, what due diligence did the assistant minister or her government conduct on those possible appointees?

The Hon. J.S. LEE (15:06): The government of the day certainly has done its due diligence by calling up different community leaders to verify the qualifications of those appointees on SAMEAC.
