Assembly should consider in terms of it being the first assembly for the Australian Capital Territory. Members have been given, I think, a video of the first day's sitting, but no-one has taken any photographs. I suggest that three photographs be taken: firstly, a photograph of the initial staff of the Assembly, because I think they have done an excellent job in assisting members and in assisting the setting up of the Assembly; secondly, a photograph incorporating the 17 members and all the staff; and, thirdly, a photograph of the 17 members of this initial Assembly. I commend that idea to you, Mr Speaker.

Return of Lost Property

MR JENSEN (4.51): Mr Speaker, I will make a very brief statement in relation to an incident that occurred last night in the Assembly area, and I suggest it is a very good example of the sort of support that we hope to receive as members of the Assembly. Last night I had to return to the Assembly for a reason, and I inadvertently left my wallet in my office. When I returned this morning there was a pleasant little note on my drawer to indicate to me, "Mr Jensen, your wallet is in your drawer", signed, "The cleaners". I would like to express publicly in the house my gratitude for the scruples involved in doing such a thing, and I will be writing to thank them personally.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Assembly adjourned at 4.52 pm until Tuesday, 25 July 1989,

at 2.30 pm
