Does the minister think it is equitable that a Victorian pensioner visiting Western Australia has the $50 fee paid by the Victorian Government, yet WA pensioners must pay the fee themselves? Mr J.A. McGINTY

I thank the member for the Kingsley for her interjection. I will pass on her best wishes. I am not familiar with the precise financial arrangements in Victoria. If the member had given prior notice, I could have advised her of those arrangements.
