Consideration in committee. The Hon. C.J. PICTON House of Assembly The Hon. C.J. PICTON: I move: That the House of Assembly insist on its amendments. Mr KNOLL House of Assembly Mr KNOLL: I rise merely to say that I have no doubt that in tomorrow's paper there will be the government's fourth or fifth attempt to beat us up over this legislation. What I want to put on the record is that the government should open its mind and see a bit of common sense on this and realise that there are a number of amendments that we have put that the Legislative Council very wisely is insisting upon. I want to put on the record the fact that we are open to working with the government to find a solution to this. There are important measures in this bill that need to be passed, especially in relation to the changes to the drug-testing regime for police on the street. I assume that we will disagree and the house will disagree and then we will end up in deadlock where we can work out a solution. Motion carried. Sitting extended beyond 17:00 on motion of Hon. C.J. Picton.
