The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:42): l seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking the Minister for Health and Wellbeing a question regarding border exemptions.

Leave granted.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: The investigation released yesterday was conducted by someone at director level in the Premier's department. The Premier told the media that the report was handed to the chief executive last Tuesday, and that some checking, some final writing was done over the last six days. My questions to the minister are:

1. When did the minister or his office first receive the report?

2. What changes to the report were made between it being provided to the chief executive last Tuesday and its release yesterday?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:42): In relation to the second question, the honourable member would need to ask the Premier, not me. In relation to the first question, I received a copy of the report yesterday.
