Personal Explanation

MINISTER'S REMARKS

Mr VENNING (Schubert) (15:27): I seek leave to make a personal explanation.

Leave granted.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

Mr VENNING: During the debate on the no-confidence motion the Minister for Transport implied that I had dozed off, or words to that effect, during the speeches. Again, that is a complete untruth. In my 20 years in this place I have never fallen asleep or even had a catnap. I have plenty of witnesses to say that I did not. It is just more grubby politics and personal vilification in an attempt to draw attention away from the misdemeanours of the Treasurer.
