State Budget

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:31): A supplementary arising from the answer: has the Treasurer been given any advice that the out years are likely to result in at least a baseline of $120 million extra in GST revenue, as the Under Treasurer outlined to the Budget and Finance Committee yesterday?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (14:32): The Under Treasurer always advises me of the facts of the situation. He outlined those facts to the Budget and Finance Committee, so certainly I have had discussions with the Under Treasurer of a similar nature in relation to the evidence he gave to the committee yesterday.
