Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1996 Week 9 Hansard (28 August) . . Page.. 2746 ..

MR HIRD (continuing):

over the portfolio from Mr Berry's big mess - yes, it was a complete mess - approved the opening of a private hospital maternity ward. That is what caused the demand for beds in the public health system to drop. You might fool some of the people some of the time, Mr Berry, but people in the community with genuine concerns for our health system can see right through you. You are a pane of glass, and a pain somewhere else.

MR SPEAKER: Order! It being 5.30 pm, the debate is interrupted in accordance with standing order 34. The Assembly stands adjourned until Thursday, 29 August, at 10.30 am.
