PREMIER'S COUNCIL FOR WOMEN

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (15:30): As a supplementary question arising from that long-winded answer, in saying that the Premier's Council for Women was established in 2002, does the minister not acknowledge that there was a previous council under the previous Liberal government?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for State/Local Government Relations, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises, Minister Assisting the Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Energy) (15:30): The information I gave was absolutely correct. I said that the Premier's Council for Women was established in 2002, which is completely correct. As usual, the opposition has got it completely wrong and is heading off down a rabbit's burrow.
