Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2001 Week 5 Hansard (3 May) . . Page.. 1506 ..

MR STANHOPE (continuing):

existence of a glass ceiling did not in any way have an impact on her decision. Heaven forbid that was the case.

I conclude by wishing Ms Leyland the best of luck. As I said, I regard her as the premium writer. I think she is among the best writers the Canberra Times has produced, and she will be sorely missed by readers of the Canberra Times. I hope that, with regard to the fact that with her departure there is barely a woman left in a senior management position, the Canberra Times will recognise her quality and entice her back.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

Assembly adjourned at 7.00 pm until Wednesday, 13 June, at 10.30 am
