          <by role="member" id="1807">Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (15:09): </by> My question is to the Minister for Industrial Relations. Has the government received advice on the length of time the work capacity test will take to have an effect on the unfunded liability of WorkCover? If so, when was this advice received; from whom was it received; and what is the advice the government received?</text>

CAICA (Colton—Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Employment, Training and Further Education, Minister for Science and Information Economy, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (15:10): </by> Thank you, sir, and I thank the honourable member for his question. I think I understand the thrust of the question this time, that is, when will we see the effects of the legislative changes with respect to, amongst other things, how the WorkCover Corporation is operating? I would say there is still some time before we see the full effect of that.</text>
        <text id="20081111c2504ec12b6b425da0000336">I also mention, for the benefit of the member and the house, that we have a briefing at 3.30 this afternoon. I have organised WorkCover officials to be there to brief the honourable member, and that, and many other questions, will be able to be asked at that time.</text>
