Mr BAILEY - 1997-12-01
Madam Speaker, I wish to ask a supplementary question. What part of the videos relate to the age of consent?
ANSWER
I will make my speech when the time is ripe, Madam Speaker. I am not dancing here to the tune of the ALP. I am here providing information to the people of the Northern Territory about a matter that I think is important.

Members interjecting.
Mr REED: The member for Arnhem laughs, but I think it is of concern to many parents. If members were listening to ABC radio this morning, they would have heard some parents expressing that concern. As a member of parliament, if I want to raise an issue and support it with material that I think is appropriate, I will do so. I will not answer to that lot opposite.
Members interjecting.
Madam SPEAKER: Order! I remind the member for Arnhem that his constant interjections are disrupting this Chamber.
