The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): I have a supplementary question. I should just quickly add that you should not confuse polite and courteous reception in the country as support. The question to the minister is: members on this side have asked multiple questions since November 2016, and you have taken them on notice every time; why have you not been able to bring back an answer to this chamber for nearly eight months now?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (14:33): I accept that the honourable member opposite has a great deal of difficulty understanding ministerial responsibility, never having been anywhere near it himself, except when he is overseas and tells people something slightly different. He knows exactly what I am talking about here. He knows exactly what I am talking about.

A minister who is responsible for a project will answer this question. I will take it on notice and bring back an answer for the honourable minister, I mean the honourable Leader of the Opposition.
