Mr Speaker, might I add my best wishes to all new members and congratulate you on your new office. (1)-(3) I have a very short answer for the member. I thank her for some notice of the question. The Premier has made it quite clear that all election commitments will be considered as part of the normal budget process. Once those decisions are finalised, I will inform members about the schools.
