Multicultural Grants Program

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (14:47): My question is to the Assistant Minister for Multicultural Affairs. Has the assistant minister or any of her staff—

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The Hon. Mr Wortley will start again, because his own front and backbench are interfering with the ability for him to be heard.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: No, it wasn't. It was his own benches. The Hon. Mr Wortley has the call.

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: Thank you, Mr President, for your protection. Has the assistant minister or any of her staff ever had conversations with the Office of the Commissioner for Public Sector Employment or any integrity body about the appropriateness of their conversations with multicultural stakeholders?

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: I call the assistant minister, if she wishes to answer.

The Hon. J.S. LEE (14:48): Thank you, Mr President.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. J.S. LEE: From time to time, any staff, if they wish to actually have a conversation with the Commissioner for Public Sector Employment, are allowed to do so. Recently, I believe the Commissioner for Public Sector Employment presented to the South Australian Multicultural and Ethnic Affairs Commission, just to give a briefing about what's happening in terms of employing different employees coming to the public sector from different cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
