My question is to the Minister for Social Services. Will the minister confirm that yesterday he wrote to me in his capacity as Minister for Social Services stating that he would refuse to table certain documents asked about in question time on the basis that the WA government asserted legal privilege over those documents, even though the minister was no longer a member of the WA government when he received them?
