The PRESIDENT: Order! Members on my right will remain silent. The Hon. Mr Wortley has the call.

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: Information provided to the opposition shows that the assistant minister recently hosted a fundraising dinner at the Adelaide Convention Centre in honour of the assistant minister. We have been advised that 900 people attended and tickets were sold for $180. My questions to the assistant minister are:

1. Exactly what taxpayer-funded resources, if any, did the assistant minister use to organise an event in honour of herself?

2. What was the total revenue from the event?

3. Where did the money raised from this huge gala event go?

The Hon. J.S. LEE (14:51): I thank the honourable member for his question. None of those questions he asked are actually of interest to the public in terms of multicultural affairs, so I therefore am not required to answer those questions.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The Hon. Jing Lee has the call and will be heard in silence.
