Earlier today we debated in this place my private senator's bill and what a debate it was, ladies and gents. It is important that my bill is referred to the Finance and Public Administration Legislation Committee. This bill deserves due process. The elected members in this place deserve more information on the issue of indemnity. The legal and financial implications must be fully examined prior to my bill progressing to a vote. In the interests of transparency and accountability, I seek the support of everyone here in this place to refer this bill to committee. It is very important. Obviously, we have seen what has happened over the last three years and we have to do our bit to set things right, thank you.
