I refer to question on notice 645, which was answered on 21 October 2025 and which asked for a response from the Minister to my letter on 28 July 2025 in which I asked for a briefing to be provided to the State Opposition about Westport by the Westport Office, to which the Minister replied "a response will be provided to your letter in due course", and I ask: (a) is the Minister able to facilitate a briefing prior to the end of the calendar year?

(a) As the member may recall I sat in opposition for eight and a half years.
