MADAM SPEAKER: I am sorry; I had suspended the sitting so that I could listen to the Clerk, so Mr De Domenico was completely out of order in speaking. Would you all just wait until I have spoken to the Clerk.

Mr Stevenson, I would direct your attention to the amended standing order 77. Perhaps you would like to move under that one. The Clerk will show it to you. Mr De Domenico and company, it is not a gag; it is an appropriate cut-off point.

MR STEVENSON (11.34): Madam Speaker, I move:

That the debate be extended by 30 minutes.

Mr Berry: It is out of order. He has to move to suspend standing orders.

MADAM SPEAKER: No. Under the amended standing order 77(e), Mr Stevenson is permitted to move that motion. The question before the Assembly is: That the debate be extended by 30 minutes. It is not to be debated. It is a question that has to be put to the Assembly, and I am putting it to the Assembly.

Question put:

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

The Assembly voted -

AYES, 9  NOES, 8

Mrs Carnell Mr Berry
Mr Cornwell Mr Connolly
Mr De Domenico Ms Ellis
Mr Humphries Ms Follett
Mr Kaine Mrs Grassby
Mr Moore Mr Lamont
Mr Stevenson Ms McRae
Ms Szuty Mr Wood
Mr Westende

Question so resolved in the affirmative.

MADAM SPEAKER: Mr De Domenico, I believe that you have the floor.

MR DE DOMENICO: Madam Speaker, thank you. I will conclude my comments by saying that having noted - - -

Mr Wood: Don't stuff it up this time.

MR DE DOMENICO: I quote the words the Minister used, "Don't stuff it up this time".

Mr Wood: Thank you for putting it on the record.

MR DE DOMENICO: Mr Wood, I suggest that you look at a mirror. Madam Speaker, my contribution is now finished.
