PERSONAL EXPLANATION

MR HUMPHRIES: Madam Speaker, I seek leave to make a statement under standing order 46.

MADAM SPEAKER: You have my leave. Please proceed.

MR HUMPHRIES: In the course of the debate on the Betting (Totalizator Administration) (Amendment) Bill Ms Follett interjected in response to a comment from Mr Kaine that she and her Opposition, as they then were, were never consulted about appointments by the then Government, the Alliance Government. Ms Follett may have forgotten that I - and I cannot speak for any of my colleagues - frequently consulted with Ms Follett about appointments that I proposed to make.

Mr Berry: What about me?

MR HUMPHRIES: I held all consultations through Ms Follett. For all the appointments relating to anything in my portfolio I consulted through Ms Follett.
