ANIMAL ACTIVISM
132. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Attorney General:
I have a supplementary question.
Will the Attorney General now acknowledge that without this question today, the
Premier would not know what the hell is going on?

I will answer that question by
asking a rhetorical question of the Leader of the Opposition: does he concede
that his member is a fool? He did not even go to the end of the answer, which I
have directed him to. Of course the Premier knows everything I am doing. I speak
to him all day about what we are going to do.
Mr R.S. Love : Why didn't
he know what you were doing yesterday?
Mr J.R. QUIGLEY : Did the
member not listen to the answer? We are not going to change the penalty for
trespass. We are going to give the courts the power under the Restraining
Orders Act to prohibit these people from future acts of trespass on pain of
arrest. The member should just listen. It has to be in his answer somewhere.
