Speaker, Election

Mr PEDERICK (Hammond) (14:14): My question is to you, Mr Speaker. Did you discuss becoming the Speaker with members of the Labor Party prior to you quitting the Liberal Party?

The SPEAKER (14:14): Thank you, member for Hammond. In fact, I'm yet to resign from the Liberal Party and so that question is hypothetical. Further questions? Leader.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

Mr Brown interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order, the member for Playford!

Members interjecting:
