PEMBERTON, SALE OF MILL HOUSES
I have a supplementary question. The Premier failed to answer the question about the ownership of the land. The land is owned by the Government, and the Premier can give a commitment to waive the cost of that land component on the transfer of these houses. Will he do so? Dr GALLOP

I answered that question. I said that the Government is considering that matter and all the issues related to it, and has made no decisions on it. That is a direct answer to the question Mr Barnett: A simple answer. Dr GALLOP: The Government is considering the matter very carefully. Let us compare the way in which the Government deals with these issues with the way in which the Opposition deals with them. What happened to the former Minister for Education’s budget on an annual basis? It blew out. There was no concern for proper financial management and no delivery of financial responsibility. Several members interjected. Dr GALLOP: The member asked me the question and I have answered it by saying that the matter is still being considered. Mr Omodei interjected. Dr GALLOP: They keep interjecting! When I do not answer the question, those opposite say that I am avoiding the issue. When they interject and I do not answer, they want me to sit down. I think I had better sit down.
