          <by role="member" id="563">The Hon. I.F. EVANS (Davenport) (14:17):</by>  My question is to the Premier. Why did the Premier and every other minister not answer the questions asked on notice on 4 March 2008 and 30 October 2007 about how the Premier and other ministers approved grant applications for organisations in their electorate, or organisations they or their family members are members, ambassadors or patrons of?</text>

M.D. RANN (Ramsay—Premier, Minister for Economic Development, Minister for Social Inclusion, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Sustainability and Climate Change) (14:17):</by>  I am happy to investigate that. I know the former minister has a very strong relationship with Apex. I think that is well known to everybody; I think people are aware of that. But I am happy to investigate the matter.</text>
