Given your public statements on the Premier's land tax proposals, do you stand by your public statements that you have had no representations from constituents opposed to those proposals?</text>

It is a question appropriately framed to a minister who is responsible for public affairs in an area, and the member for West Torrens knows that.</text>

          <by role="member" id="4840">The SPEAKER (14:34):</by>  Yes, I thank the Minister for Education. I would like to know who has made that statement and in what context it was said. I would like to find out a little bit about who said it and where that statement was made. I am more than happy to talk to anyone who thinks that they may have heard something or otherwise to that effect. I think I have answered this question pretty thoroughly and I refer the member for West Torrens to my previous answer. I move to the member for Elder.</text>
