Liberal Party Candidates

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:52): My question is to the Premier. Is the Premier okay with a member facing criminal charges standing as a Liberal candidate at the next state election?

The SPEAKER: Those matters are sub judice and the Premier may choose not to answer that question on that basis.

The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government) (14:52): Again, Mr Speaker, you have made the very valid point that it is a matter that is sub judice and we won't make any further comment on it.
