Question Time

Ambulance Ramping

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): I seek leave to provide a brief explanation before asking a question of the Leader of the Government regarding the safety of South Australians.

Leave granted.

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI: Labor promised South Australians they would fix ramping. Instead, ramping has surged to record levels under the watch of this government. Just last month, ambulance ramping hit a new all-time record of 3,036 hours. My questions to the leader are:

1. As a member of cabinet and leader in this place, what do you say to South Australians who believed the misleading Labor ads stating Labor would fix ramping?

2. What responsibility do you take for your government's failure to fix ramping, given it is the worst it has ever been in this state?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:33): I thank the honourable member for her questions, which are a variation on a regular theme. As I have said before, and as I will say again, I will refer them to the minister in another place and bring back a reply.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The honourable Leader of the Opposition, your second question.
