Land Tax

The Hon. F. PANGALLO (14:39): Yes, thank you, Mr President. Can the Treasurer explain why one of his own ministers, the Hon. David Speirs, has interests in eight properties but won't be subject to land tax on the aggregated value because he says they are not owned in the same names, and does he consider minister Speirs a tax avoider?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (14:39): I have no knowledge of the individual tax affairs of my colleagues or, indeed, members of the opposition or the crossbench.

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Mr Pangallo.
