MR STEVENSON (10.41): The motion includes my name in the membership of two committees. I have previously informed Mr Berry and others that I do not wish to stand on those committees. It is interesting to note that during the last Assembly there were three times when I sought to be placed on committees. I think that both these committees are committees that I sought to be placed on, though I was not successful at that time. This time I do not wish to be on those committees. I feel that I could well represent people in Canberra by perhaps being on a select committee that involved an investigation of citizens referenda.
Mr De Domenico: I take a point of order, Madam Speaker. Mr Stevenson is obviously now debating his decision as to why he should or should not be standing on committees. May I suggest humbly that he may move an amendment to that effect?
