Mr President, I ask a supplementary question, even though the primary question was not answered. Last month the New South Wales Labor health minister said alcohol related admissions to hospital emergency departments in New South Wales have soared by 130 per cent for 18- to 24-year-olds in recent years. Is the minister saying that the New South Wales health minister is wrong, and what is the level of alcohol related hospital admissions for other states? Is it going up or down?
