AnswerView source ↗

I have no jurisdiction to be able to answer that question. Is the member asking for an opinion? Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Member for Rockingham! Mr R.F. JOHNSON : I think the member needs to really think about the questions he is going to ask in future, and to work out whether or not he is asking the right minister. I support all my local groups, but certainly if they have an issue, I will be discussing that with them. Ms M.M. Quirk : Is sea rescue in your portfolio, minister? Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Yes. Several members interjected. Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Did the member have to ask because she did not know?
