Mr Collaery: I rise on a point of order, Mr Acting Speaker. Mr Berry is talking about the schools debate again. I know there is a town called Berri in South Australia and I wonder whether he is still wandering home from there?
MR ACTING SPEAKER: Thank you, Mr Collaery. Actually I thought he was getting a bit closer to the point. Please continue, Mr Berry.
MR BERRY: The commitment that all of the people opposite attempted to sell to the people of the ACT when they sought election to this place has been corrupted. There was never a commitment to the people of the ACT by the people opposite. All that they have set out to do is to impose conservative philosophies on the people of the Territory, destroy community assets and withdraw services. That is why we need to pass legislation which would protect Royal Canberra Hospital and the provision of public health services in the ACT and ensure that the Ainslie Transfer Station could not be legally closed.
MR ACTING SPEAKER: Order! As the time for private members' business has expired, the debate is adjourned.
PROCEEDINGS - AUTHORITY TO RECORD AND BROADCAST
MR COLLAERY (Deputy Chief Minister) (12.32), by leave: I move:
That the Assembly authorises:
(1) the recording on video tape without sound by Prime Television of proceedings during question time on Wednesday, 8 August 1990; and
(2) the use by any television station of any part of the recorded proceedings in subsequent news, current affairs and documentary programs.
MS FOLLETT (Leader of the Opposition) (12.32): I know that you have circulated a note asking that all Ministers be asked a question. Could I add to that that all Ministers answer a question?
MR ACTING SPEAKER: I am sure they will, Ms Follett. I am sure they will!
Question resolved in the affirmative.
Sitting suspended from 12.33 to 2.30 pm
