Mrs GERAGHTY House of Assembly Torrens Mrs GERAGHTY (Torrens) (23:58): I would just like to make the point that I am extremely disappointed that I had a discussion with the Opposition Whip just prior to calling for the suspension of the house, and the opposition, as far as he advised me, agreed to go beyond 12 o'clock so that we could continue the grievance debate. Sadly, they all disappeared and I presume they have gone home. Unfortunately I guess that means we will be staying after six tomorrow evening to finish the grievance debate. We did try to accommodate them. They agreed and failed to keep their part of the agreement. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! Minister, do you seek to adjourn the debate? The Hon. J.M. RANKINE House of Assembly The Hon. J.M. RANKINE: No; I was just seeking your clarification, Madam Speaker.

At 00:00 the house adjourned to Thursday 23 June 2011 at 10:30.
