Mark Standen. It does not matter. We now know who it is. ‘Standen’ would have been enough. In your career, member for Banks, Standen would have been enough; you would not have needed the extra prompting when you were at the bar.
So I ask the minister whether he can confirm to the public the $750,000 increase in the ACLEI budget and how much this falls short of the necessary funds that would be required to employ an extra 50 officers. How many officers currently work for ACLEI? How many people will the $750,000 employ and how can we have any confidence in the capacity of the ACLEI to do its task?
