          <by role="member" id="1819">The Hon. T.J. STEPHENS:</by>  I refer the minister to his answer of 24 March this year, where he committed to bring the specific statistics in relation to the questions I asked. Those statistics were: the number of drivers' licences issued in the past 12 months to APY residents, and whether this figure has increased from last year; the number of recorded incidences of unlicensed driving in the past 12 months, and whether this has changed from the last year; and the number of drivers employed under Project Mutuka. Given that the minister has had well over a month to find these numbers and report back, can he now update the chamber with those specific numbers?</text>

MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:26):</by>  I thank the honourable member for his very important question. I know that when members opposite refer to things that ministers have said, we generally take it with a grain of salt that they might be doing it reputably, but I have absolute faith that the Hon. Terry Stephens is somewhere near representing the truth of the matter. </text>
        <text id="2015050588bc52d252834c2180000198">I do not have those figures, but I will go back and see how close they are and make sure that I bring them back as quickly as I can for the honourable member. I inform the Hon. Terry Stephens that, during the break, I had the opportunity to visit the Golden North factory and I did not bring him back one of his favourite bars, despite the fact that he said he would change parties if I brought one back.</text>
