The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (15:09): Supplementary.

The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Supplementary question arising from the original answer?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Yes, indeed, Mr Deputy President. Is SA Health allowed to publish the COVID data before the Premier announces it and, if not, why not?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:09): If I could put the question in another way: is SA Health able to publish the information before they check it and publish it? No. SA Health is expected to maintain public sector standards. They will check the information before they publish it.
