able to work together in government and get good outcomes for the people of the ACT, and also to work together on some key issues that our respective parties believe in.

I would also like to thank the irrepressible staff of the Legislative Assembly for their diligent commitment and efficient running of the Assembly over the past 12 months. I note Madam Assistant Speaker’s comments on Roger, and I wish him well in his retirement. Without all of you, of course, the parliament would grind to a halt. We will get a taste of that next year. I have just had a letter from the Speaker telling us there is going to be an exercise in business continuity next year in which the mock exercise will be “the Assembly is unusable”. I look forward to seeing how we all deal with that.

I say to everyone in and around this place: have a great break. I look forward to working with you next year and to another year of progressive politics in the territory in 2017.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

The Assembly adjourned at 6.06 pm until Tuesday, 14 February 2017, at 10 am.
