Mr Speaker, I would like to add to an answer.

The member for Throsby asked me a question regarding LPG in government vehicles. In her question she failed to reveal that her letter to me was requesting that she have a Holden Berlina fitted for LPG. In my answer I pointed out that it was not possible for a Holden Berlina to be fitted for LPG, but there were various other options of cars with LPG that members and senators could choose.

Order! The member for Lalor!

The member for Throsby decided to maintain a Berlina in unleaded rather than going to a different vehicle with LPG. But I would certainly encourage all members and senators to look at their options carefully.
