Personal Explanation

LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE OF CONDUCT

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (15:33): I seek leave to make a personal explanation.

Leave granted.

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: During question time I mentioned that David O'Loughlin used a private phone, not a council phone. In fact, Mr O'Loughlin used a work phone, which he is allowed to use to make personal phone calls, but at no time did he use a council phone to make the private texts as alleged.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! That is the first time I have called order. You have been very good until now.
