MR JENSEN (10.26): I think it is appropriate at this stage to follow Mr Duby, in view of Mr Duby's record as Minister for Urban Services in relation to employing people with disabilities in the Motor Registry and the Parks and Conservation Branch. I think it is something that we should put on record. As I understand it, the current Minister is continuing that practice, and I think we all support that.

DR KINLOCH (10.27): Mr Speaker, I am very aware of clause 50, subclauses (1) and (2). No-one has the final wisdom on just where is the best place to put someone with that kind of handicap. The other side of that worry is the people who insist on placing people with that kind of handicap in inappropriate situations. There has to be some concern to give people with the maximum objectivity the right to exercise their judgment in that matter.

Question put:

That the amendments (Mr Stevenson's) be agreed to.

The Assembly voted -

AYES, 1  NOES, 16 

Mr Stevenson Mr Berry
 Mr Collaery
 Mr Connolly
 Mr Duby
 Ms Follett
 Mrs Grassby
 Mr Humphries
 Mr Jensen
 Mr Kaine
 Dr Kinloch
 Ms Maher
 Mr Moore
 Mrs Nolan
 Mr Prowse
 Mr Stefaniak
 Mr Wood

Question so resolved in the negative.

MR STEVENSON (10.29): I withdraw my circulated amendments Nos 37 and 38 and substitute the handwritten amendment I have circulated. I move:

Clause 51, page 23, paragraph (1)(b), line 38, omit "unjustifiable".

MR SPEAKER: So, you are not moving to delete them. You are advising people what you want to do.

Mr Duby: I take a point of order, Mr Speaker. We have just passed clauses 45 to 54.
