RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Minister for Industrial Relations) (14:29):</by>  Happily, I have absolutely no knowledge whatsoever of what the member for Bragg is speaking about. It does, however, remind me that, in spite of the Hon. Mr Ridgway having expressed various concerns a while ago on the public record—of course, in the other chamber, not out there—he then went ahead and voted for the Hon. Russell Wortley a few days ago anyway—so he, evidently, has gotten over it, but leave that to one side—as did, I think Mr Lucas. Am I correct in that?</text>

But look, the member for Bragg has information in her possession which is clearly very significant. I would encourage her to do with that information what I have encouraged everyone else to do: take it to the relevant people and invite them to make such investigations or inquiries as they deem appropriate. It is not my job to, on behalf of the member for Bragg, be sent around asking people questions.</text>
