HON KEN TRAVERS (North Metropolitan) [5.37 pm]: When I commenced my remarks, I said that just about every day that we come into this place we see another example of this budget unravelling and another black hole appearing in the budget. The pace is picking up as it now seems that every time we ask a question we find yet more holes opening in the budget and the financial management of this state by the members opposite. I will go through some of these a little later on in this debate. I will point out how some of the questions in question time highlighted just how out of control the budget process is under this state government and how — Hon Sally Talbot interjected. Hon KEN TRAVERS: Absolutely. I started the debate by pointing out that $20 million had been lost from the environment portfolio through what could only be described as sheer incompetence! In fairness to the Minister for Environment, on this occasion I do not think it was her incompetence that caused this because, as we heard in the estimates hearing last week, the incompetence was that of the faceless men of the committee that imposed this revenue grab on her portfolio. It is my recollection, if I am not mistaken, that the Minister for Environment told everyone that it was imposed on her.
