Homelessness Services

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:40): A further supplementary.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: It's a bit difficult for the deputy leader to be heard when the leader is talking at the same time. I call the deputy leader.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Thank you, Mr President. I note—

The Hon. K.J. Maher interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: The Leader of the Opposition doesn't get it. I want to hear the deputy leader. I don't need him to be talking while she's talking.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Noting the minister's interjection that she's fixing everything, does she therefore say that the concerns raised by these 10 homelessness organisations are not important? In fact, does that mean she is making unilateral decisions? In fact, as she has talked about the federal government dictating to the sector, that's what she is doing: she says, 'You've had your three sessions and that's it.'

The PRESIDENT: Order! The deputy leader is showing great talent at stretching supplementaries into almost a second reading speech, and I would ask her to desist from that. The minister.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:41): That supplementary doesn't deserve a response.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The Hon. Emily Bourke has the call.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: The opposition is wasting its own time.

The Hon. K.J. Maher interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! Order, Leader of the Opposition! Your own member is on her feet. The Hon. Ms Bourke has the call.
