My question is to the Treasurer. Can the Treasurer confirm that he had a meeting with the Western Australian Premier on 19 April 2010, at which the Premier informed him of his plan to increase royalties on iron ore finds? Given that the Treasurer has now had a meeting, a phone call and a briefing note, does the Treasurer still stand by his words that 'Mr Barnett did not communicate that he was going to do this to us'?
