ADJOURNMENT

Motion (by Mr Berry) proposed:

That the Assembly do now adjourn.

Human Rights Legislation

MR COLLAERY (11.47): Mr Speaker, I wish to rise briefly in the adjournment debate to express disappointment with the way in which the peaceful and humanitarian basis to the human rights legislation for passage in this Territory has been disturbed. I believe that the very introduction and passage of this legislation are threatened by the manner in which the Chief Minister produced it and the manner in which the Labor Party is behaving over it. I express extreme regret about that, and I trust that when we resume debate on the legislation on Thursday the aggro will be gone and the Labor Party will make some conciliatory moves in view of the facts which they can review in Hansard and in the documents tabled.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Assembly adjourned at 11.48 pm
