Coronavirus

The Hon. J.E. HANSON (15:09): My question is to the Treasurer. What funding has the government provisioned specifically to deal with the coronavirus outbreak, including additional support for SA Health?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:10): The government has indicated that its priority will be finding the additional funds, whatever they may well be, and is determined to meet two priorities: one is bushfire recovery costs and also the coronavirus. It's a movable feast and we will continue to respond as we need to.

The PRESIDENT: Supplementary question arising from the answer, the Hon. Mr Hanson.
