Personal Explanation

MEMBER'S REMARKS

The Hon. R.B. SUCH (Fisher) (11:30): I seek leave to make a personal explanation.

Leave granted.

The Hon. R.B. SUCH: The member for West Torrens suggested that I have, on radio, indicated that people in here should not be directed by Rome. I do not believe I ever used the word 'Rome'. What I said was that people are in here to represent their electorate. They are not in here to represent Bob Such, a church or any pressure group: they are in here to represent their electorate.

That is why we do not use names in here, to reinforce the fact that we are here to represent the electorate. We are not allowed to use names in here. So, I make the point that I did not make the claim as alleged by the member for West Torrens.
