Question Time

Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:19): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of the Attorney-General regarding his role.

Leave granted.

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI: Yesterday, the Premier was asked in the other place if he retained confidence in his Minister for Industrial Relations. In his response, the Premier failed to provide any endorsement for the minister. My questions to the minister are:

1. Given the Premier failed to publicly state that he retains confidence in him as his Minister for Industrial Relations, is the minister concerned that the Premier does indeed lack confidence in him?

2. Has the Premier had any discussions with the minister about his performance in his role as Minister for Industrial Relations, particularly his recent handling of key industrial relations matters?

3. Has the Premier provided any indication to the minister that he retains confidence in him as his Minister for Industrial Relations?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Attorney-General, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:20): I thank the honourable member for her questions. In relation to question 1: no. In relation to question 2: yes, there have been discussions about doing the job that the Liberals failed to do in terms of Summerfield. In relation to question 3: I continue to enjoy the Premier's confidence.
