MS CARNELL: Mr Speaker, I ask members to respect the confidentiality of these documents. There has been a tendency of recent days to use public servant's names and some issues involved in contracts in the media. I ask members to ensure that this information is kept confidential. Members have been extraordinarily professional about this until recently.
