I rise in this adjournment debate to comment upon Labor’s Waste Watch committee’s annual report into Howard government waste. As deputy chair of the task force that was set up by Kim Beazley and caucus, I am delighted to indicate that the second report has been issued under my name and the name of the member for Prospect. Can I make it very clear that the members of the committee include the members for Prospect, Chisholm, Adelaide, and Parramatta and also Bernie Ripoll, who is a very important member as well as being a shadow parliamentary secretary.
