Bear in mind also, Mr Collaery, that the diplomatic community in this town also provides us with considerable expense in educating their children. These are also matters that we look at. But I am aware of it. It is under consideration and I will keep you informed.
MR COLLAERY: I ask a supplementary question, Mr Speaker. I thank the Minister for his response and observe that Australian diplomatic communities are accorded similar free education in most countries - and one would be careful in touching that. I ask the Minister whether the Federal Government's decision amounts to a decision for the Treasurer of our Territory to have to raise a levy, effectively. I ask the Minister whether that levy will diminish our grants under the other arrangements, as a result.
MR WOOD: Mr Speaker, that is one of the factors we do have to consider. It is an additional complication, and I will report to you on that as well.
Ms Follett: I ask, Mr Speaker, that further questions be placed on the notice paper.
Government Dividend Payments
MS FOLLETT: Mr Speaker, on 28 November Mrs Nolan asked me a question without notice about dividend payments and the derivation of those dividends. It is a lengthy answer, Mr Speaker, and I ask that it be incorporated in Hansard.
Leave granted.

Health Services
MR BERRY: Dr Kinloch asked me a question about the relationship between ACT Health and the New South Wales Department of Health and related matters, and I took it on notice on 28 November. Perhaps it would be better, Mr Speaker, if I sought leave to incorporate this answer in Hansard as well. It is quite lengthy.
Leave granted.
