Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 3 Hansard (28 March) . . Page.. 836 ..

Ms Horodny: Why don't you listen to your own rhetoric? It might do you some good.

MR HUMPHRIES: You look at your voting record, Ms Horodny. We talk to you about things in advance, we discuss things, we make things available to you in the form of papers and so on, and it does not get the Government anywhere.

Ms Horodny: But that does not mean that we are going to vote with you.

MR HUMPHRIES: Look at your voting record, Ms Horodny. You need to give us some incentives to be cooperating with you.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

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

That so much of the standing orders be suspended as would prevent notice No. 1, Assembly business, relating to the reference of proposed temporary orders, being called on forthwith.

MR HIRD (4.44): Mr Speaker, I move:

That the proposed amendments to the standing orders which provide temporary orders relating to addresses to the Assembly (notice of which stands on the Notice Paper, as Executive business in Mr Humphries's name) be referred to the Standing Committee on Administration and Procedure for inquiry and report.

I think members are aware of this. It is straightforward.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
