Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 5 Hansard (14 May) . . Page.. 1236 ..

MR WOOD (continuing):

I am referring to the bottom of page 830 of the Weekly Hansard in the debate on the Stein report. I was speaking about the commissioners who were appointed. I was claiming, and Mr Moore corrected me - I think he was careful to do so - that the commissioners who were appointed were certainly known to some of us. Mr Moore interjected, "I do not think Justice Stein is anybody's man, in any way, in any perception". According to the Daily Hansard, I answered:

No question about that. But you knew what his perceptions, what his approaches were, there is no question about that.

Mr Moore replied:

No, I did not.

I said:

I think while we now express some satisfaction of the outcome - - -

In the Daily Hansard Mr Moore is quoted as having interjected:

I did know what Professor Troy thought certainly but I had no idea - - -

Then I went on to refer to an element in the report about revenge of the old guard. That, I think, applies a completeness to that particular part of the debate.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
