PRINTER CARTRIDGE SCAM

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (15:12): A supplementary question arising out of the answer. Can the minister indicate why he is refusing to indicate whether or not any action has already been taken in relation to officers identified within his department in relation to this particular invoice?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (15:12): It is very simple. The Minister for Finance yesterday tabled a ministerial statement covering these issues. I do not want to jeopardise any further any ongoing investigations and I will be making no further statements. I will be referring the Hon. Mr Lucas to the ministerial statements from now on.
