GIO AUSTRALIA

The Hon. M. R. EGAN: My question is directed to the Minister for Planning and Minister for Energy in his capacity as Minister representing Mr Souris, the Minister in charge of the GIO privatisation. Is the Minister aware that actors attending today's audition for the Government's GIO Privatisation advertisements are being forced to sign a declaration before being accepted for audition? Why are the actors required to declare that they personally agree with the Government's plan to sell the GIO and are in agreement with the Government's privatisation campaign?

The Hon. R. J. WEBSTER: I do not know the answer to the honourable member's question. I will seek it and give it to him as quickly as I can.
