Drought Assistance

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:30): Supplementary: within that $55 million support package, will the minister inform the chamber where the $1,500 grants for farmers through the Rural Business Support funds are coming from?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:31): It's coming from within the package, which is government funds. I am not quite sure what the opposition is trying to get to. I answered this question earlier: it's part of the package.

An honourable member interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: The package comes from the Department of Treasury and Finance. It's very unclear what on earth the Leader of the Opposition is going on about.
