Small business

Discussion of matter of public importance

MADAM SPEAKER: I have received letters from Ms Burch, Mr Doszpot, Mr Hanson, Mrs Jones, Ms Lawder, Mr Smyth and Mr Wall proposing that matters of public importance be submitted to the Assembly. In accordance with standing order 79, I have determined that the matter proposed by Mr Hanson be submitted to the Assembly, namely:

The importance of small business in the ACT.

MR HANSON (Molonglo—Leader of the Opposition) (3.26): It is with great delight that I speak about this important issue in the Assembly today. I am sure that many would share my enthusiasm for small business. I know that Mr Smyth, my colleague, certainly does, as does Ms Lawder, and as do you, Madam Speaker. I know that many of you have spoken about this issue before, but it is one that I think we should keep talking about. We should not simply just mention small business.
