GOVERNMENT'S LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM
MR COLLAERY (Deputy Chief Minister): I seek leave to make a ministerial statement concerning the Government's legislative program.
MR ACTING SPEAKER: Is leave granted?
Mr Connolly: Mr Acting Speaker, leave is not granted. This is not an appropriate subject for a ministerial statement and no warning was given to the Opposition as to its nature. If the Opposition had been advised of the subject matter of the ministerial statement, as we have been for what I understand will be a subsequent ministerial statement, then leave would gladly have been granted. Leave will consistently be refused until the Government learns the simple courtesy of advising the Opposition two hours in advance of the subject matter of a ministerial statement.
Mr Kaine: I can only assume, Mr Acting Speaker, that the Opposition does not want to know what our legislative program is. It is up to you; please yourself.
MR COLLAERY: Mr Acting Speaker, if the Opposition does not wish to have open consultative government we will find another venue through which to make this important announcement to the people of Canberra. I will leave it at that and trust that the people of Canberra will note this attempt to muzzle the activities of the parliament.
