The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:47): A supplementary arising from the original answer.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! Before we go on to the supplementary question, it is most unusual for me not to be able to hear the minister because her own team is drowning her out.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order, the Hon. Mr Hanson!

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK: Yes, Mr President, I made that observation myself. Why is the minister happy to refer to the budget in response to this question but she refused to answer questions, and referred them to estimates, in response to the first question today about FTEs in her own department?

The PRESIDENT: You can answer it. Answer it, but we're moving on.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:47): I was certainly under the impression that the date of the state budget was well-known information. Perhaps those opposite haven't actually caught up with the parliamentary sitting calendar and the announcement of when the budget will be, but I can certainly inform them that the budget will be in June and we look forward to sharing it with you then.

The PRESIDENT: The last supplementary, the Hon. Mr Hood.
