The Member has continued to ask the same question three times in consecutive months. I have answered them on two occasions and to respond to this question repeatedly consumes valuable time and taxpayer funds and diverts staff resources away from their primary function of developing the tourism industry in Western Australia. If, however, the Member has a specific inquiry, for a specific month or can provide a valid reason for the questions, I will consider diverting these resources to provide the information required.
