QUESTIONS TO THE SPEAKER

Mr HOGAN (Page—Deputy Manager of Opposition Business and Deputy Leader of the National Party) (15:08): Speaker, in accordance with standing order 105(b), I wish to draw your attention to overdue questions in writing—questions Nos 26 through to 56. On 25 August, I asked the Minister representing the Minister for Trade and Tourism a number of questions of importance to the Australian community; 91 days later, I still have no response to any of them.

Mr Speaker, I ask that you write to the minister and seek their explanation as to why they have chosen not to answer my questions in writing within 60 days.
