Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2002 Week 8 Hansard (27 June) . . Page.. 2391 ..

MS TUCKER (continuing):

Unless new members have had reason to study the area in which we operate, have worked in this building or whatever, they do not really understand a lot of the processes in the Westminster system. I have been a member of this place for a number of years and I am a staunch supporter of that system. It is because of people like Maureen that I have learnt to understand the value of the processes that we have. I can't say too strongly how important I think that is for the running of a parliament or an assembly and for democratic processes. So thank you, Maureen.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

The Assembly adjourned at 5.41 pm until Tuesday, 20 August 2002, at 10.30 am.
