Question Time

Minister for Environment and Water

Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:03): My question is to the Minister for Environment and Water. As the minister responsible for climate change, does the minister think it is appropriate that he holds shares in a coalmining company?

The Hon. D.J. SPEIRS (Black—Minister for Environment and Water) (14:03): I have a declaration on the public record that I have a very small portfolio—very, very small, in fact. I am quite comfortable with the level of disclosure there and have no issue with people in the public domain knowing that I do that.
