Coronavirus, Hotel Quarantine

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:21): Final supplementary arising from the original answer, sir.

The PRESIDENT: Yes, I am listening.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: The report that went to national cabinet that the minister referred to in his answer: is the minister able to outline to the chamber what changes have been made to the South Australian hotel quarantine program as a result of that report and its recommendations?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:22): The national cabinet received a report from Jane Halton in relation to hotel quarantine. We also are awaiting a report from the Chief Scientist, Professor Finkel, in relation to contact tracing. What both reports showed is that South Australia's performance is gold standard in both domains. In relation to the honourable member's question, I will seek further details on notice.
