Royal Adelaide Hospital Blackout

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:21): Further supplementary arising from the answer: does the minister recall his comments on ABC radio on 8 February 2018 where he criticised the government for a blackout that happened under very similar circumstances, or does he disagree with what he said now?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:21): I reiterate my statements: this government will back hospital management to do routine testing of generators.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Are we all finished? I do remind the opposition that it is your question time. I am happy to sit up here and watch you argue from your seat. That goes for you, the Hon. Mr Ridgway, as well. Don't you put your head above the parapet. The Hon. Ms Scriven, you have the call.
