MR SESELJA: I table the following paper:

Indigenous teachers, grandparents, trainees and rising leaders—Copy of email to Neil Bulless from Jess Wurf, Media Adviser to Jon Stanhope MLA, including an attachment, dated 16 September 2008.

Mr Hargreaves: Point of order, Mr Speaker. My motion to suspend standing orders also was intended to include the request for Mr Smyth to table the document that he referred to—not just one, Mr Speaker. We can see a series coming up. The intention of the motion to suspend standing orders was to encompass all of that. If they will do that, we are quite happy about that and it may not be necessary to proceed.

Mr Seselja: I have just tabled the one that was asked for, which is the one that Mr Smyth was referring to.

MR SPEAKER: Okay. I will be careful here. Mr Seselja, are you also tabling the one that you were referring to, because I gather there have been two.

Mr Seselja: There has.

MR SPEAKER: Just for the clarity of the house—

Mr Seselja: I do not believe I was asked to—

Ms Gallagher: Yes, I asked you.

Mr Corbell: Yes, the Chief Minister asked you to.

Mr Seselja: To table the one from previous—

Mr Corbell: Yes, she did.

Mr Seselja: I am happy to table it, but there are a couple of documents here; so I will table it.

Government members interjecting—

MR SPEAKER: Order, members!

Mr Seselja: Sorry, could I just seek clarification? If we table that, will the Chief Minister now give a fresh answer to that question in relation to that matter?

Members interjecting—

MR SPEAKER: Thank you, members. Order, members! Mr Hanson, Mr Corbell, thank you. Where we are up to is that the document that Mr Smyth was referring to is being tabled. That, I understand, is where it is up to. Mr Hargreaves, would you like to seek leave to withdraw your motion to suspend standing orders?
