My question is to the Leader of the Government in the Senate. In his answer to my question yesterday the minister told the Senate that he knew his six-star board and lodgings at Perisher were being provided free of charge by the former Carr government minister, Mr Eddie Obeid, while he was staying there. That being so, why did the minister wait until this week—some eight years after staying there—to declare Mr Obeid's generous hospitality in his pecuniary interest register?
