HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY CHAMBER

The SPEAKER (11:09): Isn't it wonderful to be back in this chamber again! There will be some changes at the back; you will notice that it does look very bare, but that is being looked at. Apparently, the curtains got as far as the back door before they disintegrated. They were being taken away to be cleaned, and they did not get any further. They had been there for a hundred and something years! I particularly compliment John, our attendant, for his very hard work in all of this. He has been busy for two days; he has not stopped moving. Thank you, John.
