AUTODOM

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg) (15:00): My question is to the Premier. Has the former treasurer, the Hon. Kevin Foley, had meetings with government representatives to discuss matters that he had official dealings with in his final 18 months of office? On Monday, The Advertiser published an article that stated that Mr Foley had met with minister Koutsantonis to discuss the repayment of a government loan to Autodom. Yesterday, minister Koutsantonis told the house that responsibility to follow up the financial assistance grant provided to Autodom (or aiAutomotive) rested with Treasury and Finance. Mr Foley was the treasurer within his last 18 months in office and has not been out of office for more than two years.

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Minister for State Development) (15:01): I thank the honourable member for her question, and I will take that question on notice and bring back an answer.
