00:00I acknowledge this has been a very difficult time for me personally,
00:05a very difficult time for friends and for family members.
00:09I do want to thank the many hundreds of people in South Australia
00:14that have been so supportive of me
00:17and have reached out to see if I'm OK to support friends and family
00:22and to provide a level of encouragement during this time.
00:26I didn't need to leave Parliament.
00:28There was no compulsion to do so, but I couldn't sustain that job.
00:33I couldn't do that job properly
00:35and I couldn't execute my responsibilities as a Member of Parliament
00:41and also deal with my dental health and wellbeing through this process.
