As I said, I am disappointed that the motion was necessary, but I am pleased that it is now being done. We have not a further delay of something like six months, waiting for persons, either for or against, to know which way the wheel is going to turn.

I am quite pleased, also, that it appears that the vast majority of the members of this Assembly are happy to let this development go ahead - everyone except the Rally. The Rally, of course, is out of step with the world. It appears that everyone has it wrong except them. Nevertheless, I think that is the way life is going to be for them for the foreseeable future.

Mr Kaine: They listen to a different drummer, Craig.

MR DUBY: They march to a different drum, perhaps. I thank members for allowing this to be brought on in private members' time. I am quite amazed that it has taken well over an hour to discuss this issue.

Mr Moore: We are only halfway through the debate. We have the second one to go.

MR DUBY: Mr Moore is saying that we are only halfway through the debate. On that basis I shall resume my seat and let the process continue.
