GOVERNMENT STATIONERY CONTRACT

The Hon. I.F. EVANS (Davenport) (15:23): My question is to the Minister for Finance. Has the minister received the report from the Small Business Commissioner on the whole-of-government stationery contract and, if not, when does he expect to receive it? If the minister has received it, when does he intend to share it with the house?

The Hon. M.F. O'BRIEN (Napier—Minister for Finance, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:23): Yes I have received it, and it is yet to be considered by cabinet.
