MR BERRY: No, my word; because I did talk to you.

Mr Moore: I shall explain under standing order 47 when you finish.

MR BERRY: No; I spoke to you and I told you what I was going to do.

Mr Moore: No, you did not.

MR BERRY: I told you that it was my intention to be the chair - - -

Mr Moore: You are misrepresenting it, and you know that you are.

MR BERRY: No.

Mr Moore: And I am supporting everything that you told us.

MR BERRY: I told you that it was my intention to be the chair of the Planning Committee.

Mr Moore: You intended. No, you did not.

MR BERRY: And you agreed.

Mr De Domenico: He is not even on the Planning Committee.

MADAM SPEAKER: Order!

MR BERRY: Ms Szuty and I discussed the matter, and I told Ms Szuty, as a result of that discussion, that it was my intention to be the chair of the Planning Committee, and she agreed.

Mr Kaine: Keep this up, Wayne, and you will not even get on the committee, mate.

MR BERRY: That is fine. I cannot, for the life of me, understand what all the agitation is about. I know what the numbers are and I will accept the outcome, as I have to; but I cannot help feeling that there is still a little bit of spite lingering there somewhere. If that is the way you play the game, we can learn to cope with that; but in future, Mrs Carnell, your Whip will be spending a bit of time behind the typewriter because I am not going to accept anything from him unless it is in writing.

MR MOORE: Madam Speaker, I would like to explain a misunderstanding under standing order 47.

MADAM SPEAKER: Proceed, Mr Moore.
