I am very sorry, but providing the
information in the time required is not possible. The system that the data
needs to be extracted from is offline until tomorrow evening and the data
cannot be provided from any other source. I therefore ask the member to place
the question on notice. I am so sorry.
Hon Stephen Dawson : You told me to ask that.
Hon HELEN MORTON : I know; I am sorry. I said I had it, but I
just did not realise how it was. Please ask any other question.
The PRESIDENT : In view of that, if Hon Stephen Dawson has
another question, I will give him the call to ask another one.
