Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2003 Week 2 Hansard (6 March) . . Page.. 677 ..


MR WOOD (continuing):

I note the automatic position of the Democrats-that they will decline to support the bill. I think in my next speech I might leave out any reference to the national competition policy-maybe I will get your support on that basis. We just will not acknowledge that it happened.

I thank members for their support and we will now move to the dissection of this bill in the detail stage consideration.
