STANLEY HOSPITAL COMMISSIONING — UNDER TREASURER'S COMMENTS

I have a supplementary question. Is it not true that if Serco

have been less?
Mr W.J. Johnston :
It's easy to answer.

It is not easy to answer. It might be easy to answer between
the member for Cannington's ears—a lot of things are—but
when we are on this side of the Parliament and not in the sandpit playing with
Tonka toys, we have to deal with hard issues.
Mr B.S. Wyatt : Yes
or no?
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER :
Members!
Mr T.R. BUSWELL : I
cannot answer that question.
Mr P.C. Tinley interjected.
The SPEAKER :
Member for Willagee, I call you to order for the first time. Treasurer, can you
wind this up, please.
Mr T.R. BUSWELL : I
think I have.
