QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Electoral Legislation

MR MOORE: My question is directed to you, Madam Speaker, under standing order 115. Madam Speaker, I refer to the Estimates Committee hearings in 1992 and your study trip to Hobart from 21 to 23 July 1992. I will quote a few words from the Estimates Committee Hansard to give the background to my question. You said:

... I wanted to be absolutely sure that I understood how the Hare-Clark system worked ...

Further on you said:

... I was interested in speaking to the Electorate Officer about my responsibilities as Speaker vis-a-vis the Hare-Clark Bill.
