MS DUNDAS
(continuing):Amendment agreed to.
MRS DUNNE
(11.27): Mr Speaker, I move the amendment circulated in my name.MR SPEAKER
: You will need leave.MRS DUNNE
: I seek leave to move the amendment circulated in my name.Leave granted.
MRS DUNNE
: I move the amendment circulated in my name:After the word "table", insert "before the Assembly adjourns today (26 June 2003)".
MR CORBELL
(Minister for Health and Minister for Planning) (11.27): The government has no difficulty with this amendment, Mr Speaker, but I do want to draw to members' attention that, in tabling the document, as is provided for in Mrs Dunne's substantive motion, it is a case of then deciding whether or not that document should be authorised for publication or made available more broadly.

Somebody that hasn't spoken can move that it be adjourned to a later hour this day.Debate (on motion by Mr Stefaniak ) adjourned to a later hour.
