COVIDSafe App

The Hon. F. PANGALLO (15:01): By a short half-head, Mr President.

The PRESIDENT: A brief supplementary, yes, sir.

The Hon. F. PANGALLO: Minister, I also should have asked you: has the COVIDSafe app been shown to work?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:02): I don't have data on that, but I am more than happy to get that data. Obviously in a situation like this, contact tracing is very important, but thankfully the COVIDSafe app hasn't had as much work to do in South Australia as it might have elsewhere in the world, in that, for example, I think the United Kingdom are on their third version of a COVID-safe app. But I will certainly seek information for the honourable member.
