The Hon. H.M. GIROLAMO (Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:22): Supplementary: what portion of the $18 million that has been committed is new money versus existing funds?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:22): That would be the amounts that were in the media release back in November, if the opposition would care to bother to read them.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Okay. The honourable Deputy Leader of the Opposition, your second question.
