Sittings and Business

The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (14:28): Supplementary: has the Leader of the Government considered, as he promised to, the possibility of making Thursday mornings a regular sitting period, and has he also considered the possibility of overflowing private members' business into the period after government business on a Thursday?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (14:28): I thank the honourable member for his questions. I am prepared to consider it, but I would be very hesitant to have private members' business overflow outside Wednesdays.
