Mr PETER MORRIS —Further to the question raised by the member for Kalgoorlie and the response by the Minister for Administrative Services, when you are looking at that matter, would you please establish whether it is a fact that Jetset Travel Services, were they to gain the right to operate travel services and the travel office of the Department of House of Representatives, are in fact a foreign owned operation?


Mr SPEAKER —I think it is generally known that up until a week ago Jetset Travel was 50 per cent owned by Australian interests. These interests have been sold within the last week, as I understand it, to Air New Zealand. But that is speculation around a potential suppler of a service which, at the moment, has not been resolved. I say that out of due deference to our visiting colleagues from New Zealand.
