Coronavirus Restrictions

Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (15:02): My question is to the Premier. Why did the Premier propose a fly-in fly-out model for the AFL just a week ago when it was not consistent with SA Health's advice. With your leave, sir, and that of the house I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr PICTON: On the television news last Thursday, the Premier said, and I quote:

SA players might be able to train here, stay here, in their home state, go out for games, but then return in some sort of semi-quarantine situation so they can still train and they can still get to their next game.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (15:02): This was actually not something that was raised by me last week. In fact, it was raised back in April—

Mr Picton: That's what you said last week.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: Sorry?

Mr Picton: You said that last week.

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for Kaurna, we have the question. The Premier has the call.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: It's something that was raised back in April at the national cabinet. I think I have canvassed this quite extensively in the media. It was a request by the AHPPC to look at the two models, the fly-in fly-out and also the hub model. They did that work, and they provided that advice to the national cabinet.
