Government Procurement

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (14:39): Supplementary: as the minister responsible for the public sector, will he also look at building capacity within the public sector for this kind of work to be done in-house?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:39): I thank the honourable member for her question. We are always keen to build the capacity within the public sector where we can do things rather than go outside.
