MR CONNOLLY: He has asked me a question. Does he give me leave to answer the question?
MADAM SPEAKER: It is not question time. I believe that you are all quoting from the same document.
MR CONNOLLY: The answer is at page 15: It is not reasonable to expect that there will always be those surplus beds.
ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS ON NOTICE
MR CORNWELL: Madam Speaker, I wish to ask a question under standing order 118A. I refer Mr Lamont, the Minister for Housing and Community Services, to questions on notice Nos 1463 and 1455, which are due to be answered today. I ask whether he will give me an undertaking that answers will be provided by close of business.
Mr Lamont: What were they in relation to, specifically?
MR CORNWELL: They are questions Nos 1463 and 1455. I have copies of them here. I also have some questions for Mr Wood, who is not here. Questions Nos 1452, 1457, 1462 and 1468 are due to be answered today.
Mr Berry: What were they about?
MR CORNWELL: I will tell you in a moment.
Madam Speaker, I also wish to move a motion in relation to question No. 1442, addressed to Mr Wood, which was due to be answered on 12 November. When I raised the matter last week and asked when I would receive an answer, Mr Wood's response was, "In due course". I therefore move:
That Mr Wood, the Minister for the Environment, Land and Planning, provide an answer to question on notice No. 1442 within seven days.
Question resolved in the affirmative.
MRS CARNELL: I also have some questions that need to be answered, under standing order 118A. Question No. 1450 is to Mr Wood, as Minister for the Environment, Land and Planning. Question No. 1465 is to the Minister for Urban Services. Could I have those answers by close of business today? I will table them, if you would like them.
MR LAMONT: No; I have them here. I thank you for your request.
