discussion is going on, and indeed this particular body which Mr Moore had in mind could have contributed significantly in a semi-formal or indeed a formal way to that discussion by bringing together a group of people for a particular purpose.
I take the opportunity, Mr Speaker, to draw to the attention of members of the house an advertisement in yesterday's paper - Tuesday, 21 November - about the integrated Territory planning proposals, advising of a series of public meetings for the process of community consultation. Those public meetings will be held in Lake Ginninderra College, Erindale College, Melrose High School at Pearce, and Deakin High School. They will be at times convenient to the community and will allow anybody in the community to participate in that process of consultation. In the meantime the interim proposal which was put forward by Mr Moore has considerable merit, and discussion of the proposal would have had considerable merit. But we will be denied the opportunity to discuss and the opportunity to vote on Mr Moore's proposal if this adjournment motion is carried.
MR SPEAKER: Order! I draw members' attention to standing order 63. It was with the indulgence of the chair that I allowed one speaker from each side just to clear the air slightly on this matter.
