The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:53): A supplementary arising from the original answer to this question: is the minister concerned that issues are being raised as recently as Friday by InDaily about the politicisation, and as far back—as the minister notes—as December 2020?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:53): If the honourable member wants to make vague allusions to an article without any reference, I would like to see where InDaily criticised SA Health's communications department for partisan activity. Either put up or shut up!

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: Further supplementary arising from the original answer.

The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Just before you ask your supplementary question, you are asking your supplementary questions and there is silence; when the minister gives an answer, I expect silence so that at least I can hear the answer.

The Hon. R.P. Wortley interjecting:

The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: The Hon. Mr Wortley, hopefully it is your last few days, go out with some dignity. Okay, enough!
