Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2003 Week 12 Hansard (18 November) . . Page.. 4237 ..

MR HARGREAVES (continuing):

So, Mr Deputy Speaker, I would like again to thank you personally for your support for the introduction of Labor Party policy; it is a brilliant thing that you have done.

Question put:
