AnswerView source ↗

If I understand the question, it is: what proportion of the debt is long term - that is, secured - and what proportion is unsecured or owing to farmers and stock firms? Hon Barry House : I am thinking more of family debt as opposed to company debt. Hon KIM CHANCE : I do not have that information and, if I did, I would not be able to provide it. I genuinely do not have that information. The administrator of the company would be able to handle the first part of the question but not the second.
