It can be taken on notice and the Treasurer can answer it later. The budget measure— The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: We don't need the commentary. The Hon. J.E. HANSON Legislative Council The Hon. J.E. HANSON: The budget measure in this year's budget requires HomeStart to pay 100 per cent of profits back to Treasury. This means, of course, that HomeStart can't reinvest the profits. My question to the minister is: why is the minister taking money off low-income households and HomeStart to be paid back into the budget? You can ask the Treasurer. The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK Legislative Council Minister for Human Services The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:49): I am happy to answer that, notwithstanding that HomeStart is an agency of the Hon. Stephan Knoll.
