MEMBERS' CONTRIBUTION

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (17:58): I move:

That this council recognises the contribution of the Hon. Caroline Schaefer and the Hon. Robert Lawson to the parliament and the community of South Australia.

It is with a great deal of pleasure and some sadness that I move this motion. On a personal level, I have certainly enjoyed working with Caroline and Robert here in the parliament for almost eight years. I knew both of them prior to that, and I probably knew Caroline a little better than Robert in the Liberal Party circles. I have certainly enjoyed the time I have had with them.

My intention in moving this motion today is to allow members—after I have made my contribution—to add their thoughts and best wishes for the future of both members so that we do not end up with a long drawn-out valedictory on the last day of sitting. It will also give Caroline and Robert an opportunity to respond. I seek leave to conclude my remarks later.

Leave granted; debate adjourned.

[Sitting suspended from 18:01 to 19:48]
