MINISTERIAL STAFF

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (14:27): I have a supplementary question arising from the minister's attempted answer. Is the minister standing by his statement made on 4 April that Mr Watson's contract is held with him as the minister?

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (14:27): Mr Watson is on a 12-month contract. All contracts, I would imagine, are under the Chief Executive Officer of the Public Service, so Mr Jim Hallion would be the person ultimately responsible for Jimmy.
