Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Address in Reply Address in Reply Address in Reply Address in Reply Adjourned debate on motion for adoption. (Continued from 17 May 2018.) The Hon. R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council Treasurer The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:51): In closing the Address in Reply, I will be very brief because Labor members in the chamber warned me not to get between the Leader of the Opposition and the prospect of a sausage roll over at Government House. His Facebook posts are resplendent with sausage rolls, both large and small, that he has devoured across all of South Australia. In thanking all honourable members, in particular I thank new members who made first speeches in the Address in Reply debate, namely the Hon. Clare Scriven, the Hon. Emily Bourke, the Hon. Frank Pangallo and the Hon. Irene Pnevmatikos. On behalf of all members, but in particular my colleagues, I also congratulate my colleague the Hon. Dennis Hood on his contribution. The quality of that contribution was measurably improved by the new perspective the Hon. Mr Hood has on matters as they relate to the state of South Australia. I thank all other members for their contributions. The Address in Reply debate is one of the few opportunities members have to wax lyrical about all issues of concern to them. Not all new members were able to make their first speeches. We understand the Hon. Connie Bonaros will make her first speech at a later occasion. I have already indicated to the Hon. Frank Pangallo, on behalf of the government, that we will accommodate the honourable member's wishes at whatever time is of her choosing and the Hon. Mr Pangallo's choosing, whether it be in the Supply Bill debate, which will commence this week, or whether we make a separate resolution of the council to allow the Hon. Connie Bonaros to make her first speech in the chamber. With that, I thank honourable members for their contributions. We look forward to presenting the Address in Reply to the Governor in the very near future. The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: I remind honourable members that His Excellency the Governor will receive the President and the members of the council at 4pm today for the presentation of the Address in Reply. I ask all honourable members to accompany me to Government House. Sitting suspended from 15:53 to 16:29. The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: I have to inform the council that, accompanied by the mover, seconder and honourable members, I proceeded to Government House and there presented to His Excellency the Address in Reply to His Excellency's opening speech adopted by the council this day, to which His Excellency was pleased to make the following reply: Thank you for your Address-in-Reply to the Speech with which I opened the First Session of the Fifty-Fourth Parliament. I am confident that you will give your best consideration to all matters placed before you. I pray that your deliberations will add meaning and value to the lives of our South Australian community.
