QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Ainslie Transfer Station

MR MOORE: Mr Speaker, originally you gave me the right to ask a question. I attempted to suspend standing orders in order to first seek leave, then to suspend standing orders in order to ask a question in a particular way to avoid any further problems.
