I have a supplementary question. I am asking the minister about the contract and what is contained within it. For example, the living-away-from-home allowance - food is $6 344 per annum. What does the minister say to Western Australian police - The SPEAKER: I point out to the member for Darling Range that this is a supplementary question. It is not an opportunity to re-ask the first question. The member should be brief. Mr J.H.D.
