How long has this money been available without being spent? The Hon. G.E. GAGO Legislative Council Minister for Environment and Conservation, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister Assisting the Minister for Health NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Environment and Conservation, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister Assisting the Minister for Health) (15:20): I am more than happy to provide the detail of that. I do not have those figures with me today, but I am happy to take the question on notice and bring back the details. It is worthwhile reminding the chamber that we are in the midst of one of the worst droughts on record, and that has significantly impacted on the NRM boards' ability to complete a number of their projects; it is having a significant adverse impact. In terms of the figures, I am happy to get that information and bring back a response.
