Parliamentary Procedure

Sittings and Business

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:01): I give notice that on Thursday 2 July this year I will move that this house requires the Speaker to table and make copies publicly available by no later than 5pm on Friday 3 July this year of all country members' accommodation allowance claim forms that have been submitted from 20 March 2010 to 30 June 2020.

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL: Point of clarification, Mr Speaker: the private member has sought to move a motion on a day when no private members' business exists, and I ask whether or not the motion is in order.

The SPEAKER: It is not a committee motion; it is another motion. Notice can only be given on a Wednesday, but then again, Mr Clerk, there could be a suspension of standing orders, and that could bring it on at an earlier point in time. Would someone therefore like to move that it be on the Notice Paper on the next Wednesday of sitting? By the way, that information might be readily available by then anyway.

The Hon. A. Koutsantonis: I move it, to assist the Speaker, sir.

The SPEAKER: Thank you, member for West Torrens. He so moves. Is that seconded? I do not really need to, but I am happy to. We seem to have reached agreement on how to proceed. Thank you, members.

The Hon. D.G. Pisoni interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The Minister for Innovation and Skills is called to order.
