Can I question Mr. Moran's statement regarding dramatic improvements and that he hopes everything will be in order. To take an example of what I hoped would have been in order with regard to property and managing the assets, there are still 54 leased properties that have no lease agreements in place. It is not rocket science to get a lease agreement in place with regard to that number of properties.

I would have thought that would have been well dealt with prior to the presentation of the statement here. Does the Department have a full asset register in place? What is it doing to ensure that there are lease agreements and that we regularise the property portfolio?
