Transport Subsidy Scheme

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:26): Further supplementary: given that it would be good to have some answers, but she is sometimes responsible and sometimes not.

The PRESIDENT: Commentary; we do not need commentary.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: I was merely thinking aloud, Mr President.

The PRESIDENT: And whilst I am correcting members, can we keep with either 'the Minister for' and whatever they are minister of, without their personal name, or 'member for Schubert', or whatever it is? Can we keep the discipline?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Certainly.

The PRESIDENT: That wasn't specifically directed at yourself, the Hon. Ms Scriven.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Will the minister table the letter she has written to the NDIA that she referred to in interviews today? And presumably that is the same letter that she is referring to now, and could she confirm that?

The Hon. J.M.A. Lensink: Sorry, can you repeat that?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Can the minister table the letter that she referred to to the NDIA that she has apparently written? Can she table that for the chamber? And is that the same letter or lobbying that she is referring to now with the Hon. Stephan Knoll?

The PRESIDENT: Member for Schubert.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:27): The letter that I am referring to we posted on Monday. It was reported publicly, I think, on Wednesday in The Advertiser largely pretty much in full. I will check whether I am able to table that particular letter and get back to the chamber if that is the case.
