Murray-Darling Basin Royal Commission

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (15:26): When I tried to get a copy of the commissioner's report after being tabled, why was I basically told that there was a very limited—

The PRESIDENT: This is a matter of personal explanation in a supplementary. Just please, the Hon. Mr Wortley, ask your supplementary.

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: Why weren't all members of parliament given a copy of the royal commission's report?

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway: But you told us before you never read reports.

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:26): Mr President, I won't go down that particular path, as delicious as that interjection might have been in relation to the Hon. Mr Wortley saying he couldn't trust himself to read his own reports. I don't know why the Hon. Mr Wortley was unable to get a copy of the royal commission report. It was certainly publicly available. If it pleases the member, I will see whether there is not a spare copy somewhere. If we do find a spare copy and give it to him, I will be asking questions afterwards of the honourable member just to make sure he did read it.

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway: Do you want it delivered to Scuzzi or something more convenient for you?

The PRESIDENT: Are you finished, the Hon. Mr Ridgway?

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: You just worry about our trade exports, mate, for the state.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Mr Wortley, I am waiting patiently here to give you the call for your question. Have you finished your private conversation with the Hon. Mr Ridgway? Yes? The Hon. Mr Wortley.
