Personal Explanation

DIVISION COUNT

Mr VENNING (Schubert) (12:59): I seek leave to make a personal explanation.

Leave granted.

Mr VENNING: During the division this morning, the opposition had one too many members voting. I had agreed to two pairs from the government and was not aware until too late that one of the members to whom I had given leave was actually present in this house, and for that I apologise.

[Sitting suspended from 13:00 to 14:00]
