The government has made no decision
to privatise. It has not been discussed at —
Mr
M.P. Murray interjected.
Mr
C.J. BARNETT : It has not even been discussed at cabinet. It is a proposal of
a list of assets from Ernst and Young basically on what might be privatised.
Mr
M.P. Murray : Rule it out!
Mr
C.J. BARNETT : Why not rule in a rebirth of the racing industry in Western
Australia and build something great! The member for Collie–Preston should
expand his mind. It might be a good idea for him to jump out of the 1960s and
