I refer to the management of conflict of interest in Racing and Wagering Western Australia (RWWA) and the note on page 116 of their Annual Report that "some senior officials own (in full and/or part) racehorses and/or greyhounds that participate in racing within Western Australia", and I ask:
(a) how is this conflict of interest managed within RWWA;
(b) will RWWA make publicly available the names and winnings of the animals that are owned in part or in full by senior staff at RWWA; and
(c) if no to (b), why not?
