AnswerView source ↗

(1)-(3) I thank the honourable member for the question. The Leader of the House actually pre-empted my comment. I can hardly table something when I was asked the question without notice. I have not had any discussions with the Treasurer on the proposed costings or whatever costings there may be in a proposed or possible merger between Verve and Synergy, so obviously I have not received anything. Therefore, I cannot table anything.
