Mr Stefaniak: Madam Speaker, I seek leave to make a comment in response to Mr Lamont's statement.

MADAM SPEAKER: Is leave granted?

Mr Moore: It is inappropriate.

Mr Stefaniak: Madam Speaker, it is all right. I will withdraw that. I will speak when we talk about it in principle. If Mr Lamont has a sensible amendment, I would be delighted to look at it.

Debate (on motion by Mr Wood) adjourned.

DISCHARGE OF ORDER OF THE DAY

MR STEFANIAK: Madam Speaker, I ask for leave of the Assembly to move a motion to discharge order of the day No. 18, private members business.

Leave granted.

MR STEFANIAK: I move:

That order of the day No. 18, private members business, relating to the Noise Control Manual Amendment Bill 1994, be discharged from the notice paper.

Madam Speaker, this Bill, which was introduced back in May by my colleague Mr Westende, had some technical difficulties. Accordingly, on the basis of legal advice and advice from the various motor sports, I would ask that it not proceed. As I indicated earlier, the current Bill, which has been drafted with legal support and with support from experts like Mr Challis and motor racing bodies - I reiterate that for the benefit of Mr Lamont - has been substituted in its place. In relation to the Bill that I have just introduced in place of Mr Westende's, I would certainly invite any member of this Assembly who thinks they can make it better to come and see me and come up with amendments.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
