          <by role="member" id="605">The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:16):</by>  This particular issue has been much discussed over many years in relation to residential and commercial tenancies and the like, so, yes, there is legislation that seeks to look at these particular issues, but it's residential and commercial tenancies-type legislation that has sought to involve itself over past years in relation to these particular issues between landlords and tenants. We, in this chamber, and I suspect in the time the Hon. Mr Wortley has been here, have debated those issues on a number of occasions.</text>
