QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Consultants - Probity Checks

MR WHITECROSS: My question without notice is to Mrs Carnell in her capacity as Chief Minister and Treasurer. Chief Minister, can you explain to the house what probity checks the Government currently employs to vet contractors and consultants prior to their being engaged by the Government?

MRS CARNELL: It depends on the contract, Mr Speaker.

MR SPEAKER: Do you have a supplementary question, Mr Whitecross?

MR WHITECROSS: I do not know about you, Mr Speaker, but I would not have called that an answer to my question.
