STATE ECONOMY
323. Mr D.C. NALDER to the Treasurer:
I have a supplementary question. I appreciate
that response, and I look forward to the March quarterly report, but would the
Treasurer be able to share with the house the actual impacts on revenue that
are occurring now, to give us a sense of how much it has fallen against the
current budget?

The
point I made a minute ago is that the March quarter will highlight that the
impacts that hit the finances will flow for the June quarter. The point I
made before is that we will not see a stark difference for the March quarter,
but all revenue sources other than
royalties are declining and will continue to decline. Royalties, as we are all
aware, I suspect, are holding up, primarily driven by a high iron ore price,
but all other revenue sources will certainly decline. Once we have an idea of
when that is on a trajectory that we have confidence in, I will certainly
provide that information.
Mr D.T. Redman : I was first,
Mr Speaker!
The SPEAKER : Okay. You have a
ribbon on already, but I will give you another one. We will go in the correct
order. Member for Baldivis.
