Parliamentary Procedure

Visitors

The SPEAKER: Before we begin this afternoon, I would like to welcome some people to parliament. We have Dulcie Boag, who is a 44-year volunteer with the Hutt St Centre and winner of the Joy Noble Award, which is the highest distinction for an individual volunteer in South Australia. It is lovely to have you here today, Dulcie, and thank you so much for all the wonderful work you do for the Hutt St Centre and the wider community. It is very much appreciated. She is the guest of the Minister for Human Services, and thank you very much, Nat, for having Dulcie in today.

We also have the great Graham Gunn with us, the former member for Stuart, former Speaker of the house. Thirty-nine years he spent in here, and just think about it: that is 12 elections that Graham Gunn won. Always a terrific person to get on with as a local member. He won that seat so many times, when others thought they might have been able to take it off him, but he knew the people of his area very well. It is great to see you, Gunny, you are looking younger than ever.

We have a couple of school groups in as well, and both have a connection with me: St Michael's College. I was a former scholar there, and probably got traded in the draft at Blackfriars in year 11, but had a good time. They are the guests of the member for Colton. The member for Cheltenham is a former scholar at St Michael's as well. I am not sure whether there are any other former students from St Michael's.

We also have University Senior College here. My son went to that school. It is great to have all the students here from St Michael's and from University Senior College—great schools. Of course, University Senior College students are the guests of the member for Adelaide.

Also, we have Dr Catherine Kemper, who is the senior researcher in mammals at the SA Museum. I hope you find today's proceedings interesting as well; maybe they will form part of your research!
