I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question.

It is not possible to provide the requested information in the time required and I therefore ask the honourable member to place this question on notice.

The PRESIDENT: Order!

Hon Martin Aldridge: It's your answer.

Hon Stephen Dawson: Don't be silly! Seriously.

The PRESIDENT: Order!
