Tourism

Mr KNOLL (Schubert) (14:47): Supplementary, Mr Speaker: can the minister outline whether he will be taking a limousine, taxi or walking to the concert on Saturday?

The SPEAKER: I think it is a bit hypothetical.

The Hon. L.W.K. BIGNELL (Mawson—Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Tourism, Minister for Recreation and Sport, Minister for Racing) (14:47): I thank the member for the question, and I point out that in the time that he has been in this house, representing a tourism and wine area, he has never actually asked a serious question of me about anything—

Members interjecting:

The Hon. L.W.K. BIGNELL: —that has anything to do with tourism, and if he wants to play—

Mr PISONI: Point of order: this is imputing improper motive on a member, sir—

Members interjecting:

Mr PISONI: Point of order, sir: imputing improper motives on a member is against standing orders.

The SPEAKER: The expression is 'imputing improper motives', not 'impugning proper motives'. But, with that correction: the question was incendiary and tendentious, and so is the answer. The member for Goyder.
