Assistant Minister to the Premier

The Hon. T.T. NGO (14:45): My question is to the minister assisting the Premier:

1. Has the assistant minister or her staff ever insisted to or requested of any multicultural community organisation or council that her husband, Mr Eddie Liew, be acknowledged publicly as a guest at functions and events?

2. Has the assistant minister or her staff also insisted or requested at events or functions that her husband be seated in the front row alongside dignitaries and VIPs such as members of parliament?

The Hon. J.S. LEE (14:46): The answers are no and no.
