This is great news – but at the same time, a double-edged sword. As we know, domestic violence doesn’t discriminate – including where you live. Of course, I would prefer there to be no need for the hubs at all but that is patently unrealistic.

Another day, another deadly crisis within @SAHealth.
I will again invite the @aeasa1981 to give evidence before the Committee I chair into SA’s public health system to try to get to the bottom of this unacceptable situation. #saparli

Today I asked Health Minister @StephenWadeMLC about the future of our renowned Women's & Children's Hospital - both the current site & the proposed new site – including if SA taxpayers could afford the estimated $1.8 billion price-tag for the new hospital?

The community has every right to expect its lawmakers to be subject to the very same laws they make for everybody else. As with MPs, the EO Act makes no provision for complaints of sexual harassment between members of the judiciary. That's plainly wrong!

This is nothing short of reprehensible. The new laws Blair and I are proposing are potentially life-saving. This issue is so above party politics - yet this is what the Liberals chose to do.

I congratulate Kinokuniya on taking such strong and decisive action. If this action helps stop one child from being sexually abused, it is one child we have saved.
Together, we can all make a difference. @KinokuniyaAust

Credit where credit's due. I congratulate @StephenWadeMLC for finally committing funds for a compression garment subsidy scheme in SA for people with lymphoedema. As @LSGSAdelaide President, Monique Bareham, says this is life-changing for so many people.

Going to talk shortly with @DavidBevanSA on @abcadelaide re the current review over the future of Springbank Secondary College and the Education Minister @JohnGardnerMP's ongoing refusal to meet with concerned parents of students who attend the school. @FriendsofSSC #saparli

While it is obviously too late for Paddy, hopefully the warning labels will save other lives and save other families from having to go through the pain and hurt that Paddy’s family lives with. If our proposed new laws save just one life, that is one life saved. #saparli

SAFETY FIRST
SA Best is proposing new laws that would ban LPG cylinders that don't display a health safety warning. The proposal comes after the tragic death of a Port Lincoln teenager back in February. @RegterNathan

@WSSSouthAus does such an amazing job - day in, day out - helping victims of domestic violence. So thanks to @FoodlandSA and Chesser Chemicals – two proud SA businesses - for their generous donations of some highly sought-after products to this truly inspirational organisations.

Labels warning of the fatal dangers of inhaling liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) will be mandatory on all LPG bottles sold or refilled in SA under national-first laws I have introduced. If these proposed new laws save just one life, that is one life saved.

Today I asked Health Minister @StephenWadeMLC questions about medical staffing levels at the W&CH amid concern senior medical positions aren't being filled & the Hospital's Exec is making decisions about the new hospital without clinical engagement.

Today I asked the @Rob_Lucas an important question about the potential closure of Springbank Secondary College. The Treasurer's response was typically dismissive. @FriendsofSSC

Today I asked @StephenWadeMLC to explain why an independent investigation into people in care being seriously injured/assaulted – including where some died from their injuries – would not be publicly released, when that was the original intent.

To me, this is a no brainer – & way overdue! The community rightly expects its lawmakers to embrace community expectations. Let’s hope other politicians on North Tce take note of this survey & act accordingly when we get to vote on these important reforms. adelaidenow.com.au/news/sout…

Seriously? One of SA’s richest hoteliers – and poker machine barons @HurleyPubs – treating musicians like seals at a zoo having to perform for their food! The Musicians' Union of Australia is absolutely correct – what an insult! #saparli @AHASA5000

I commend Treasurer @Rob_Lucas for supporting my Superannuation Freedom of Choice Bill. It makes no sense to force public servants to save money in super only to deny them any control over how it’s managed. SA workers have been dudded for long enough!

Today @SABEST_Party had a small but important victory in having child exploitation material banned with one of Sydney's biggest bookstores - @KinokuniyaAust - agreeing to ban animated movies & "comic books” showing sexually-explicit images of young girls.

Today I asked @SAHealth Minister, @StephenWadeMLC , why he & Ag Minister, @TimWhetstoneMP, voted against a proposal to introduce mandatory pregnancy warning labels on packaged alcohol. His response was incredibly underwhelming.
