Atkinson quits SA Attorney-General role
Controversial South Australian Attorney-General Michael Atkinson (pictured) has reportedly resigned from the role in the wake of ongoing public criticism and a voter backlash in his seat of Croydon in this weekend’s state election.
The Labor politician has for some time stood in the way of lobbying efforts by the video game industry and gamers themselves to create an R18+ classification for games in Australia. In addition, he has faced criticism over his defence of legislation requiring online political comment during state elections to be accompanied by personal details.
AdelaideNOW reported at midday today the news and that Atkinson would remain in parliament until the next election in 2014.
He did not want to leave early in his term and create a by-election scenario, AdelaideNOW reported, with the Labor government led by Mike Rann expected to only have a slender majority after the election yesterday. In addition, Atkinson wanted to make room for new blood in the Labor ministry.
