department was absolutely justified in the steps it took. Subsequently we have acted to settle the issue and to provide some proposals so that people with ponies at Hall have access to riding and agistment.
I have spent some time out at Hall with people in the community, planting trees as part of their Greening Australia project. Perhaps some others of you have done that too. I well know what their views are about protection of the local environment. They are on my side in this. Over and above that, let me say that the equestrian people have a continuing right to have access to land and I am sure that they also will be interested in that land being well looked after.
MRS NOLAN: I have a supplementary question, Mr Speaker. Can Mr Wood undertake to have a look at the problems that are currently being experienced in the equestrian arena and in relation to the necessary land available for agistment?
MR WOOD: Yes, I will do that. If you give me some further information to go on and either talk to me or write to me, I will certainly look at that.
Member's Travel Costs
MR COLLAERY: Mr Speaker, my question is directed to you. Were you at any time approached by the Chief Minister or any of her nominees or Mr Moore to pay an air fare for Mr Moore?
MR SPEAKER: No, I was not.
MR COLLAERY: I ask a supplementary question, Mr Speaker. Will you investigate whether, having regard to section 14 of the self-government Act, Mr Moore has taken an allowance or a reward or some payment, directly or indirectly, in relation to services outside the determinations made by the Remuneration Tribunal under section 73 of the Act?
MR SPEAKER: Mr Collaery, I believe that it is improper for you to ask me to obtain a legal opinion. Under the circumstances, I will seek advice on that matter.
Kambah Health Centre
MRS GRASSBY: I ask a question of the Minister for Health. Will he inform the house of what he has done about the possums and the possum excreta - in other words, possum poo - at the Kambah Health Centre?
