The Speaker: Minister! Member for Mount Lawley! Leader
of the Opposition, had you finished your question?
Mr Basil Zempilas: No, I had not. Continuing the

I speak with members
of the Jewish community all the time, particularly the leaders. Of course, the member
for Mount Lawley does an amazing job in his electorate of upholding the
interests of that community. I remind everyone to continue to conduct
themselves in an appropriate way.
