SKILLS FOR ALL

The Hon. S.G. WADE (15:13): Could I ask the minister to take that question on notice, because my understanding is that he is the lead agency for wider employment.

An honourable member interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The Hon. Mr Wade has been here long enough to know what a supplementary question is.

The Hon. S.G. Wade: I am just trying to encourage the minister not to mislead the parliament.

The PRESIDENT: It is to ask the question without explanation.

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (15:13): Encouragement is always welcome and, if I am wrong, I will come back and correct my position. However, I understand in relation to the question—if I took it correctly—the lead agency will be as I suggested.
