PENALTY RATES

Mr WILLIAMS (MacKillop—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:05): My question is to the Premier. Does the Premier stand by his assertion that the Australian Hotels Association was 'positively disposed to the change' with regard to the shop trading hours, when the AHA's General Manager, Ian Horne, said this morning on radio that the changes are, and I again quote—

The Hon. P.F. CONLON: Point of order.

The SPEAKER: Order! Point of order.

The Hon. P.F. CONLON: It is orderly, if you wish to explain a question, to seek the leave of the house.

Mr WILLIAMS: This is the question.

The Hon. P.F. Conlon: No, it's not; it is an explanation.

Mr WILLIAMS: It is a question. I will start again, Madam Speaker.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

Mr WILLIAMS: Does the Premier stand by his assertion that the Australian Hotels Association was 'positively disposed to the change' with regard to shop trading hours, when the AHA's General Manager, Ian Horne, said this morning—

The Hon. P.F. CONLON: Point of order.

Mr WILLIAMS: —that it was a 'pig of a deal'?

The Hon. P.F. CONLON: I am not quite sure what those pig noises he was making were, but that was explaining the question without the leave of the house.

The SPEAKER: Yes, I think that you were right, minister. Premier.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Minister for State Development) (15:06): Thank you, Madam Speaker. I thank the honourable member for his question, and the answer is yes, because they told us so.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!
