Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2000 Week 12 Hansard (5 December) . . Page.. 3712 ..

MR QUINLAN (9:51): Mr Speaker, much has been said today, and I think most of the arguments and the decisions are fairly clear.

Mr Moore: Mr Speaker, I do not think Mr Quinlan can debate this question. This is one of the questions that are not open to debate. We ought not set a precedent. When we finish the bill, Mr Quinlan can make a statement.

MR QUINLAN: I seek leave to make a statement.

MR SPEAKER: Is leave granted?
