MR BERRY: There was a claim served on me, Madam Speaker, by the Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance. One claim was that the employees and their partners and their dependants are entitled to free first-class air travel where they are required to travel on duty, are stationed on certain locations, take up employment in another town, and so on. I think you might have mentioned that sort of thing. There are other claims which give plenty of ambit, such as that employees shall be entitled to a paid rest break of 30 minutes' duration in each hour of work. There are several other claims which leave plenty of ambit for negotiation. Mrs Carnell came up with a nonsense in relation to this matter. I will not go on with the issue. I merely draw to the Assembly's attention, and for the public record, that ambit claims are routine.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Assembly adjourned at 5.24 pm until Tuesday, 18 May 1993, at 2.30 pm
