          <by role="member" id="1804">Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:03):</by>  I wonder if I may raise at this point a matter that I raised yesterday in respect of the tabling of a document which I think you have had an opportunity now to peruse and identify that it appears to be a document which is a commentary on a certain agreement as distinct from being an abridged agreement. If we could perhaps hear your assessment of that because, in the event that I am correct, I would be asking you to call on the Premier to correctly identify the document.</text>

          <by role="member" id="531">The SPEAKER (14:03):</by>  Thank you. I did seek out the member for Bragg yesterday to tell her that I had read the document and sought advice on it, and I think the member for Bragg is correct to say it is probably not an abridgement but a summary or commentary. I do not think much turns on that, because it will be inserted in parliamentary papers nevertheless, because ministers can, without leave, table documents and they go into parliamentary papers.</text>

          <by role="member" id="1804">Ms CHAPMAN:</by>  I thank you for your advice on that matter and, indeed, the Premier's indication of what the document actually is. What we do not want to be left with is some misunderstanding that a part of the actual document has, in fact, been tabled by the government, and that clearly was not the case. Thank you, sir.</text>

          <by role="office">The SPEAKER:</by>  That would be an opportune moment for me to say to the interjector—the member for Morialta—that I found, on reading his point of order and, in particular, the Minister for Communities' answers to a question that led up to his point of order that her remarks were not at all irrelevant to the question. They were, to use the term of the member for Flinders, germane and therefore, the point of order was bogus. Therefore, the member for Morialta's presence here today is very much on probation. The Deputy Premier.</text>
