Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 2 Hansard (27 February) . . Page.. 367 ..

MR HUMPHRIES (Attorney-General) (5.09), in reply: Mr Speaker, I want to make reference to the reason why we are adjourning at this point in the proceedings. It is true that the Government wants to have matters Nos 5 to 8 of Executive business orders of the day to debate tomorrow. The reason is that the matters that were listed on the draft program for tomorrow were matters that are, I think, almost exclusively the responsibility of Mr Stefaniak, who may not be present tomorrow, for reasons which we all understand. Therefore, the Government has quite deliberately wanted to put that business over for tomorrow's debate. Mr Berry was on his feet when I discussed it with other members. I am sorry that I did not tell him about it beforehand.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
