    Legislative Assembly Tuesday, 7 June 2005 ESTIMATES COMMITTEES A & B ESTIMATES COMMITTEE A The meeting commenced at 9.00 am. Division 1: Parliament, $36 915 000 - Mrs D.J. Guise, Chairman. Mr F. Riebeling, Speaker of the Legislative Assembly. Mr P.J. McHugh, Clerk of the Legislative Assembly. Mr R. Bremner, Executive Manager, Parliamentary Services. Mr M.D. Crouche, Finance Manager, Parliamentary Services. The CHAIRMAN: This estimates committee will be reported by Hansard staff. The daily proof Hansard will be published at 9.00 am tomorrow. The estimates committee’s consideration of the estimates will be restricted to discussion of those items for which a vote of money is proposed in the consolidated fund. This is the prime focus of the committee. Although there is scope for members to examine many matters, questions need to be clearly related to a page number, item, program or amount within the volumes. For example, members are free to pursue performance indicators that are included in the Budget Statements while there remains a clear link between the questions and the estimates. It is the intention of the Chairman to ensure that as many questions as possible are asked and answered and that both questions and answers are short and to the point. The Speaker may agree to provide supplementary information to the committee, rather than asking that the question be put on notice for the next sitting week. For the purpose of following up the provision of this information, I ask the Speaker to clearly indicate to the committee which supplementary information he agrees to provide and I will then allocate a reference number.
