LOGUE BROOK DAM — WATER FOR THE FUTURE FUNDING
I have a supplementary question. Can the minister explain to the house why he has not told the federal government that he has welshed on a deal that was underpinned by a $50 million investment by the federal government? Why has he not done it? Dr G.G. JACOBS

It is the same question again. I have answered the question. Of that funding, $35 million has already been spent. We do not need $14 million of the funding because we are not building a pipe to take the water from Logue Brook Dam into the integrated water system.
