Department of the Legislative Assembly, Northern Territory Government

Mr EDE - 1994-10-05

Will the Chief Minister concede that it is an important matter of policy, an important matter for the management of this government and an important matter for the management of the public service that they may have confidence in his leadership by knowing whether he intends to remain or whether he intends to spit the dummy and leave? Does he concede that that is an important matter of public policy on which he should answer?

ANSWER

Mr Speaker, I do not often say things of this kind about myself, but I simply advise the Leader of the Opposition that, when he manages to obtain the standing as leader of his party that I believe that I have with mine, he may ask that kind of question of me.

Members interjecting.

Mr SPEAKER: Order!
