DR STEPHEN VAN DER MYE - SETTLEMENT WITH GOVERNMENT
I am a little overwhelmed. Perhaps the first question should be whether I can help the Leader of the House get his knighthood! I refer the minister to the reported settlement between the government, through Verve Energy, and Dr Stephen van der Mye. (1) Will the minister detail the terms of the settlement and the amount to be paid to Dr van der Mye; and, if not, why not? (2) Why did the government, through Verve Energy, settle on the claim? (3) Will the minister tabled Dr van der Mye’s letter of resignation; and, if not, why not? (4) Will the minister table the minutes of the board meeting held on 19 February 2004; and, if not, why not? Hon KIM CHANCE

Just so that we do not get carried away, it is not possible to provide the information in the time available. I ask the honourable member to place the question on notice.
