__________________________

MADAM SPEAKER (Ms McRae) took the chair at 2.30 pm and read the prayer.

PAPER

MR HUMPHRIES: Madam Speaker, I seek leave to present a petition from interstate petitioners.

Leave granted.

MR HUMPHRIES: I present a petition from 907 interstate residents, requesting that the Assembly prohibit the availability of all X-rated material and the possession of child pornography.

SUSPENSION OF STANDING AND TEMPORARY ORDERS

Motion (by Mr Berry) agreed to, with the concurrence of an absolute majority:

That so much of the standing and temporary orders be suspended as would prevent:

(1) any business before the Assembly at 3 pm this day being interrupted to allow the Treasurer to be called on forthwith to present the Appropriation Bill 1992-93;

(2) debate on any motion before the Assembly at that time of interruption being adjourned until the question "That debate on the Appropriation Bill 1992-93 be adjourned and the resumption of the debate be made an order of the day for the next sitting" is agreed;

(3) at 3 pm on Thursday, 17 September 1991, the order of the day for resumption of debate on the question "That the Appropriation Bill 1992-93 be agreed to in principle" being called on notwithstanding any business before the Assembly and that the time limit on the speech of the Leader of the Opposition (Mr Kaine) be equivalent to the time taken by the Treasurer in moving the motion "That the Bill be agreed to in principle"; and

(4) debate on any motion before the Assembly at that time being adjourned until a later hour that day.
