WORKCOVER CORPORATION

Mr HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite—Leader of the Opposition) (14:05): I have a supplementary question, Mr Speaker. In light of the minister's answer, can he inform the house how much of the $1.33 billion invested by the corporation as of 30 June 2008 has since been lost as of this week?

The Hon. P. CAICA (Colton—Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Employment, Training and Further Education, Minister for Science and Information Economy, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (14:06): No, I cannot give an accurate answer to that, but I would expect that, if any investments at this point in time are making money on the investment, WorkCover will be doing very well. I will get an answer to that question and I will get back to the leader in the house.
