LOCAL GOVERNMENT CONSULTATION

The Hon. S.G. WADE (14:43): A supplementary question: in terms of the minister's response already there referred to, does he feel he has any responsibility to monitor compliance with the agreement?

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (14:43): I have quite a bit of consultation with the LGA and various ministers in regard to the memorandum of understanding and, as I have stated, with the vast majority of issues regarding bills there is very good consultation. There are times when that may not occur for one reason or another. Once again, I will take it on notice, refer it to the Minister for Planning and he can have the dialogue with the minister himself.
