PETROL PRICES, 50-50 LEGISLATION
I have a supplementary question. Is the Premier refusing to confirm his previous unqualified statement that his 50-50 legislation will lead to a significant cut in fuel prices? Dr GALLOP

Of course it will lead to a fall in the areas on which it will have an impact. Where are those areas? I am sure the members for Stirling and Kalgoorlie will tell me where those areas are; they are in regional Western Australia. The Government is fighting for regional Western Australia and I remind the members of this Parliament who voted against the 50-50 amendments when they came into this place. The members who voted against those important amendments were the Liberal and National members of this Parliament.
