MINISTER FOR HOUSING — OVERSEAS TRAVEL
444. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Minister for Housing:
I have a supplementary question.
How does the minister reconcile spending $51 000 of taxpayer funds for a single
trip with his adviser when Western Australians are struggling to keep a roof
over their heads?

AnswerView source ↗

Can we be on the record that the
member has it wrong. The member does not acknowledge that he has it wrong. The member has made false claims to this Parliament
that he is not choosing to correct. I repeat very clearly: the cost relates to the full cost of the trip, and it was not a first-class flight. The
member should retract that in this chamber.
