Regional Bank Closures

The Hon. R.A. SIMMS (14:58): Supplementary: in addition to making a submission, has the minister written to Westpac and, if not, why not?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:58): I have written to the investigation nationally. Interestingly, I couldn't see anything from the Greens to that national inquiry either. I'm happy to be corrected if the state Greens have made a submission as well, but I think it would have been really quite meaningful if all of us in this place—opposition, crossbench and the government—had made a submission because it was certainly something that was raised a number of times in this place.
