brought down on Tuesday, makes any better contribution than their last one to the plight of the unemployed and the plight of small business in and around the ACT. I congratulate Mr De Domenico and his committee for taking this initiative and, first of all, getting out there and letting people know that we are interested in them and, secondly, attempting to bring those resources together for the mutual benefit of all of the people who live in the area.
PLANNING, DEVELOPMENT AND INFRASTRUCTURE -
STANDING COMMITTEE
Report on New Capital Works Program 1992-1993
MR BERRY (Deputy Chief Minister) (11.19): Madam Speaker, I move:
That Assembly Business, order of the day No. 2, relating to the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Committee's report on the 1992-93 new capital works program, be postponed.
This is a matter which will be considered in the budget context. It is not something that needs to be debated here today.
Question resolved in the affirmative.
AUDIT ACT - STATEMENTS OF VARIATIONS TO APPROPRIATION ACT 1991-92 AND MINISTER'S ADVANCE
Papers
[COGNATE PAPERS:
TREASURER'S QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENT - PAPER
TREASURER'S ADVANCE - PAPER]
Debate resumed from 11 August 1992, on motion by Ms Follett:
That the Assembly takes note of the papers.
MR KAINE (Leader of the Opposition) (11.20): Madam Speaker, I suggest, that, if members agree, orders of the day Nos 1, 2 and 3 be debated cognately. They all deal with financial reports of one kind or another brought forward by the Government.
Mr Lamont: Can't you write three speeches?
MR KAINE: I can read the same one three times, if you like. It would be just as appropriate. I am simply putting it to the Assembly, Madam Speaker. If members do not want to do it, I am prepared to read my speech three times.
MADAM SPEAKER: Is it the wish of the Assembly that these three matters be considered together? There being no objection, proceed, Mr Kaine.
MR KAINE: I am glad that they have seen the good sense of what I was proposing. If they listen to me they will discover that my proposals are always based on good commonsense and practicality.
