I thank the member for that
question.
I am surprised that the member has
asked that because his office was contacted on several occasions today and
advised that the Minister for Water has said that because of the extensive
nature of this question, it could not be answered today, but that we would
answer it tomorrow if the member were to ask it on that day. I am not sure why
the member has put this forward, but we will get him the information when we
can.
