Mr HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite—Leader of the Opposition) (14:26): As a supplementary question, will the Premier require the resignation of the Minister for Industrial Relations if the government's promises are not kept?

The Hon. M.D. RANN (Ramsay—Premier, Minister for Economic Development, Minister for Social Inclusion, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Sustainability and Climate Change) (14:26): There will be no requirement for the minister to resign; neither will I require him to resign, because he is fixing the system. He is doing what governments should do, which is to have the guts to govern. What we are doing is making sure; as I said right from the start, I want this to be the fairest scheme in Australia, and it will be.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! The member for Hartley.
