Whitmore Square Soup Kitchen

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:48): Supplementary: given the minister has said the matter to do with the street kitchen is entirely within the purview of the Adelaide City Council, is she implying that the only reason her chief executive was involved is because her chief executive owns a house and business in the local area?

The PRESIDENT: That was a long bow, I think, but I will call the minister.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:48): I didn't say that at all. I am not quite sure—

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK: The Labor Party—

The PRESIDENT: The minister has been asked a supplementary question.

The Hon. K.J. Maher interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Leader, you are out of order!

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK: I am bewildered and befuddled by this line of questioning. It makes no sense to me, and it makes no sense to all those people who read Hansard, don't you know?
