Economic And Business Growth Fund

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (15:06): Supplementary: so what is the criteria to apply for this fund, when it's obviously secret and not published anywhere?

The Hon. R.P. Wortley: Must be a donation, maybe, from a Liberal.

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (15:07): Mr President, I'd ask the Hon. Mr Wortley to withdraw that interjection of saying it's something to do with donations. That's a disgraceful thing to say and I'd ask him to withdraw it.

Members interjecting:

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY: It is disgraceful, so I'd ask him to withdraw it.

The PRESIDENT: It was not unparliamentary.

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY: Well, I think that is disgraceful. I think the intention is to make all of those details around the guidelines and principles available in the near future.
