DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC PROSECUTIONS - RESOURCES
I ask a supplementary question. The Director of Public Prosecutions said that he is 50 lawyers short. Is the Attorney General saying that he is lying; and, if he is not lying, what does the Attorney General intend to do about his claim? Mr J.A. McGINTY

This is one occasion on which we cannot accuse The West Australian of being misleading because, as I read today’s The West Australian , the DPP did not say anything of the sort.
