APPROPRIATION — REDUCTION
280. Hon KEN TRAVERS to the minister representing the

I refer to pages 162 and 165 of the Economic and Fiscal Outlook , which show a change in the funding
model, including a $170 million reduction in the appropriation to the Public
Transport Authority in the 2012–13 financial year.

I thank the honourable member for notice of the question. I
advise that the Treasurer has been engaged for much of the afternoon in a
debate in some other place. However, if an answer to this question does come
before the end of question time, I will table it for the member's
information.
