AnswerView source ↗
I am sorry but I do not have any notice of this question. However, I will try to answer it without any notice. (1) Yes. Careful analysis was made of the Wood Processing (Wesbeam) Agreement Act. It is an issue that has been before government for some years. (2) I believe I will be able to table any such work. I will certainly make inquiries and table the document as soon as it is available. Hon Norman Moore: Perhaps we should have more answers like that - when ministers are not prepared! Hon Barry House: It is supposed to be questions without notice. Hon Norman Moore: That is true.
