Alice Springs, the Territory, Darwin. The Territory government opposes this bill for these reasons, no doubt. What a farce it is to expect workers to be under such a system.
There are problems in the definition and we have had members opposite, such as the member for Hinkler, get up here and talk about hanging gliding, but what he does not do is talk about police officers, who might go to McDonald's or somewhere like that when they are on their break. They might go somewhere a touch healthier, such as Subway, or somewhere like that, when they are on their break. The member for Solomon would know police officers who go on their break.
