That
is a completely different question. Today in question time, in the last three
sitting weeks of this term of government, the opposition missed its question, and then both its first and second
questions have had false premises. That is how the opposition is going.
Several members interjected.
The SPEAKER : Members!
Mr M. McGOWAN : Bear in mind
that I have been here a long time. On the first day of the first week of the
final group of sittings, the Liberal Party
has chosen not to move a matter of public interest motion. It does not have
anything to talk about! This is the opposition. This is the Liberal
Party of today.
Mr W.R. Marmion : It's
the National Party's turn.
Mr M. McGOWAN : And then
they blame the National Party, Mr Speaker! I know that the National Party is
responsible for lots of things that have gone wrong, but I think it is a
bit rich of the Liberal Party, in the final three weeks of sitting, not to be
able to sort itself out.
I make this point to the member for
Bateman. He was a minister in the last government for a fleeting period, before he challenged the leader who put him in
there. Be that as it may, the arrangements for overtime at Synergy are
identical to the arrangements that were in place during the eight and a half
years of the last government.
