I ask a supplementary question. Is the minister aware of the decision? On what basis could a department - Ms A.J. MacTIERNAN: Mr Speaker, is there one or two supplementary questions? The SPEAKER: There is one question only. Ms A.J. MacTIERNAN

AnswerView source ↗

I find it extraordinary that after all the time the member for Murdoch has spent in the Chamber he does not understand the nature of a supplementary question. He has not asked a supplementary question. The answer remains the same; this Government has spent $19 million more than was projected in the previous Government’s estimates.
