Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Parliamentary Procedure Parliamentary Procedure Sittings and Business Sittings and Business The Hon. R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council Treasurer The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (17:32): I move: That the council at its rising do adjourn until Tuesday 8 May 2018 at 2.15pm. In speaking briefly to this penultimate motion that I move this afternoon, I indicate that, as I have had discussions with most members in this chamber, it is the government's intention that the default position is that we would sit on Thursday mornings from 11am to 1pm. However, as has been the practice sometimes in recent years, in the early weeks of the parliamentary session it may well be that we do not require sitting from 11am to 1pm. In those circumstances, we would cancel the sitting the day before. In some cases, there is to be a weekly planning meeting at the start of the week and it may well be possible at the start of the week to indicate that it is unlikely that we would need to sit on the Thursday morning as well. The default position will be that we will put in our diaries a sitting of the Legislative Council from 11am to 1pm on Thursday mornings and that will be cancelled if we do not require it. Motion carried. At 17:34 the council adjourned until Tuesday 8 May 2018 at 14:15.
