          <by role="member" id="1819">The Hon. T.J. STEPHENS:</by>  I am following up on questions I asked on 24 March and subsequently on 5 May, as the minister has still failed to bring back answers and statistics which he promised to do. I have been made aware that there is a scheme called On the Right Track, also known as Project Mutuka, but that only 20 licences have been issued to Anangu since the legislation came into effect in December 2013, as part of a $4 million government scheme. My questions to the minister are:</text>
        <text id="2015120824296095c74a4d4690000503">1.&amp;#x9;Why has the minister not presented the statistics as requested of him on both those occasions, when they seemed to be available to others?</text>
        <text id="2015120824296095c74a4d4690000504">2.&amp;#x9;Does the minister think it acceptable that this scheme has resulted in only 20 out of almost 500 Anangu who registered their interest having received licences?</text>
        <text id="2015120824296095c74a4d4690000505">3.&amp;#x9;How much has been expended to date of the $4 million?</text>

MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:13):</by>  I thank the honourable member for his question and his interest in these areas. These are not matters that fall directly within my portfolio of responsibilities. I am pretty sure it is the Minister for Road Safety, the member for Light, but I will certainly refer those questions to him and bring back a reply as soon as possible.</text>
