Supplementary answer to question without notice
Budget—indicators
MS GALLAGHER: Mr Speaker, I have a matter relating to question time on Tuesday, if I could deal with that first. Mr Doszpot asked me a question about the use of unaudited indicators and I undertook that I would go back and look at what Mr Harris had said.
