The SPEAKER (14:07): The first item of business is to get the family photo. We are starting a new tradition. We are copying it from the NSW parliament. I think some other parliaments do it.

The Hon. L.W.K. BIGNELL (Mawson) (15:46): 'Prolific' today, I think, Acting Speaker, would be the word.

It used to be farmland before Jay Weatherill as Premier and Susan... -
