(3) Did the minister advise the member for Fremantle of his intentions in this matter? (4) Did he advise the member for Fremantle that he would raise the matter with the Premier? Mr T.R. BUSWELL

(1)–(4) The shots were fired from the school book repository, not the grassy knoll! There is no great conspiracy here that the member is about to uncover. I note with interest her fixation with this matter. Mrs M.H. Roberts : Why don’t you just answer the question? Then there would be no fixation. If there’s nothing to it, give us the details. Mr M. McGowan : If there’s no problem, answer it. The SPEAKER : Thank you, members! Mr T.R. BUSWELL : Let me advise in answer to the third and fourth parts of the question that the answers are no and no. In relation to the first two parts of the question about the time and the context, it was Saturday and it was two adult people having a conversation; that is, one person talks for a little while and one listens, and then the other responds and talks back, and then they move on and talk about other stuff.
