Questions without notice and ministers statements

Written responses

The PRESIDENT (19:16): I committed to Dr Ratnam to review the answer to a question she asked Minister Shing at question time. I was concerned about the level of detail expected for a minister to answer in question time on something that should be considered a question on notice, but the crux of the question was how much the government is spending on consultants in a project to demolish and privatise 45 public housing sites in Victoria, and the minister’s response up-front was that there is not a program to privatise public housing, therefore she acquitted the question.

The house stands adjourned.

House adjourned 7:17 pm.
