QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr CONROY (Shortland—Minister for Pacific Island Affairs and Minister for Defence Industry) (14:38): I thank the member for his question. Given the very detailed nature of this question, which referred to a document, I'm going to take it on notice and come back to you. That's the appropriate course of action for a minister representing another minister in this chamber.

The SPEAKER: The Manager of Opposition Business is seeking to table a document. Mr Hawke: Given the nature of that answer, I seek leave to table the document, which is redacted; all the facilities are removed. You could get the original and give us the brief on which facilities are on this document.

So I— The SPEAKER: You've asked the question. You're seeking to table the document. Is leave granted?

Mr Burke: I appreciate the help, but we've already got it. That's the nature of a government document. Leave is not granted.
