          <by role="member" id="5412">The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:21):</by>  I thank the honourable member for her question. She is certainly free to look at the budget of the previous government to see what the expected FTEs are. In terms of current FTEs, it will go forward through the budget process. Estimates, of course, is the appropriate time to ask such a question, and I would be pleased to provide information that's available then.</text>
