Council Mergers

Mr TELFER (Flinders) (15:10): My question is to the Minister for Local Government. Does the minister support council mergers and, if so, which councils in Stuart does the minister think should be merged?

The Hon. G.G. BROCK (Stuart—Minister for Local Government, Minister for Regional Roads, Minister for Veterans Affairs) (15:10): Two things: I have made it quite clear in this house and previously that I do not support forced amalgamations, and on my agenda no forced amalgamations are going to be discussed in this chamber, especially in the electorate of Stuart.
