Question Time

Conflict of Interest

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:19): My question is to the minister for the public sector. As the person responsible for the public sector in cabinet and given that conflict of interest is a widely discussed concept, can you, as the Leader of the Government and the minister for the public sector, please explain to this place the difference between a perceived and an actual conflict of interest?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (14:20): That is self-evident.
