          <by role="member" id="3404">The Hon. J.A. DARLEY:</by>  Reforms were introduced in 2007 to penalise land agents advertising properties at prices lower than expected. I understand that further reforms in this area came into effect from 2014. My questions to the Attorney-General are: how many complaints have Consumer and Business Services received about underquoting since 2014, and how many of these complaints have been substantiated?</text>
