Ministerial Responsibility

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (15:13): Supplementary arising from the answer: in what document are these responsibilities, that the minister talks of, prescribed?

The Hon. J.S. LEE (15:14): Earlier, the questions were about whether I have used my email for any official capacity as the Assistant Minister to the Premier—

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER: Point of order, Mr President.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Mr Hunter, what's your point of order?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER: The point of order is relevance, sir. The question was directed to the assistant minister's understanding of her responsibilities as a member of the executive, and the supplementary was specifically about what document has she read that will tell us where those portfolio responsibilities reside. She hasn't addressed that specific question about the document that says what her responsibilities are.

The PRESIDENT: I appreciate the point of order, but I am giving the Hon. Ms Lee some leeway, as you would a minister, to respond to the question. Your point of order came a little early in the equation. The Hon. Ms Lee.

The Hon. J.S. LEE: I have provided the answer.
