95. Mr W.J. JOHNSTON to the
Premier; Minister for State Development:
I ask a supplementary question. Is the Premier confirming
that the $2.50 relief will not continue past 30 June, and is that going to put
1 000 jobs and $250 million of government revenue at risk?

If the member had listened, he would know that I said those
arrangements are subject to continuing review. We monitor it. We monitor the
performance of the company financially, and we monitor the price of the
material they produce.
