Mr HUGHES (Giles) (11:39): I move: That the sixth report of the committee, entitled Inquiry into Delivery of Health Services on the Yorke Peninsula, be noted. Beginning in November 2024, the Economic and Finance Committee, pursuant to section 16B of the Parliamentary Committees Act 1991, established an inquiry stemming from a petition presented to... -
Web World Teachers' Day (Motions) - 29/10/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (12:11): I also rise to support this important motion and acknowledge all the teachers in the vast electorate of Giles and the hard and conscientious work that they do. When it comes to schools in my electorate, they range from the big to the very small. There is Whyalla Secondary College, which has well over 1,000 students. Ther... -
Web Criminal Law Consolidation (Street Gangs) Amendment Bill (Bills) - 29/10/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (22:18): I also rise to support the bill and I take a particular interest because of my electorate. One part of my electorate, in particular, has had a range of issues when it comes to youth crime. It is not exclusively youth crime, but youth crime that has had a major impact. I am talking about Port Augusta. The member referred ... -
Web Education and Children's Services (Enrolment and Attendance) Amendment Bill (Bills) - 28/10/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (12:43): I also rise to support this bill. In so doing I acknowledge there is a little bit of irony involved, given that I was one of those students who spent a fair amount of time not at school in the latter stages. Indeed, I had this unnerving ability to manage to get expelled from schools, two in particular: one for being, I w... -

Mr HUGHES (Giles) (14:11): I bring up the sixth report of the committee, entitled Delivery of Health Services on Yorke Peninsula. Report received and ordered to be published. -
Web Public Works Committee: Whyalla Sporting Hub (Parliamentary Committees) - 18/09/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (11:25): I am very keen to speak on this great proposal for Whyalla. This is a project that has been a long time coming. I did put a proposal prior to the 2018 election to start on the development of a sporting hub in Whyalla. Of course, we lost that election, so it was good to see that come 2022 the $5 million that we were going... -
Web Giles Electorate (Grievance Debate) - 04/09/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (15:37): I rise today to talk about a number of issues impacting upon my electorate. Obviously, this week there has been some very positive news, with the Federal Court confirming that the port and the assets of the port are part of the steelworks, so it is good to see that confirmation. It is yet another confirmation of the acti... -
Web Rural Road Safety Month (Motions) - 03/09/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (11:49): I think this is an important motion. We will be amending it, but I think the core of the motion is incredibly well intentioned and, as a regional member who travels the roads far, far too much, I get to see a lot. The member for Flinders mentioned the size of his electorate, a very big electorate. I guess my electorate i... -
Web Economic and Finance Committee: Emergency Services Levy 2025-26 (Parliamentary Committees) - 21/08/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (11:47): I thank the members for Chaffey, Hammond and Flinders for their contribution. I think the member for Hammond makes a very important point that often the lack of volunteer first responders would lead to far more deaths on our roads and elsewhere. I can speak very personally about this. I was returning one time from a camp... -
Web Radiation Protection and Control (Commencement of Proceedings) Amendment Bill (Bills) - 21/08/2025
Mr HUGHES (Giles) (16:40): I am just getting stuck into it, sir. It is a Thursday, so I am eager to go. I also rise to support the Radiation Protection and Control (Commencement of Proceedings) Amendment Bill 2025. As the member said, this is a very short bill. It is a very simple bill. I will get to the core of it in a moment, but of course I hav...
