Are you going to answer the supplementary question, or are we moving on? It's up to you. The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN Legislative Council Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development Minister for Forest Industries The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:48): I am happy to answer the question again, but what I will suggest is that the Hon.

D.G.E. Hood: So you're not sure. The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN Legislative Council The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: I am repeating the answer that I have made. Certainly, I do encourage those opposite, if they wish to—I think there is an expression that says, 'When you're in a hole, just keep digging.' They seem to keep digging further and further down. This is a service that was cut by the Marshall Liberal government. Funding was cut by the Marshall Liberal government— The Hon. D.G.E. Hood Legislative Council The Hon. D.G.E.
