With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain. Leave granted. Mrs HURN House of Assembly Schubert Mrs HURN: Parents and clinicians have raised concerns directly with the opposition that these reviews have not been independent and that clinical programming errors have had and will continue to have an impact on their child's development. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I am not necessarily certain that an assertion that a statement has been made in general arrives at the level of factual detail necessary to justify its inclusion by leave. I make that observation in view of the fact that this is the last sitting day, or may be the last sitting day. I don't have any better information than anybody else about that as matters stand. An honourable member House of Assembly An honourable member: Sure you don't. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: In fact, I don't.
