Mr Speaker - Mr A.J. Carpenter: Adult education classes are now available. Mr R.F. JOHNSON: The minister knows nothing about education, so he should attend. Several members interjected. Mr R.F. JOHNSON: I will ignore the babble. As a supplementary question, in the interests of open and accountable government, will the minister provide me with all documents relating to the issue, including the existing and proposed contracts? The question is very simple. Mr C.M. BROWN

The Government provides more documents to the Opposition than the Opposition ever did when it was in government. The Opposition understands the nature of the discussions that are taking place between the Western Australian Tourism Commission and the Confederation of Australian Motor Sport. I will be very happy to report to this House when those discussions are complete.
