ORDER OF BUSINESS

MR TEMPORARY DEPUTY SPEAKER: Mr Moore, you may wish to move that order of the day No. 2 be postponed.

Mr Moore: No, Mr Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am quite happy to bring on order of the day No. 2, the Prostitution (Consequential Amendments) Bill. It is quite appropriate to decriminalise prostitution. Order of the day No. 2 is the consequential provisions legislation, and that would simply decriminalise prostitution. If somebody else wants to move the adjournment, it is up to them.

Mr Collaery: On a point of order, Mr Temporary Deputy Speaker: I think the Assembly has already resolved that this should be a cognate debate.

MR TEMPORARY DEPUTY SPEAKER: No, Mr Collaery, it is not a resolution; it is done by agreement.

PROSTITUTION (CONSEQUENTIAL AMENDMENTS) BILL 1991

Consideration resumed from 16 October 1991, on motion by Mr Moore:

That this Bill be agreed to in principle.

Debate (on motion by Mr Collaery) adjourned.
