The day in Parliament
When Parliament sat at 2.30 p.m. yesterday members stood in silence as a mark of respect for the late Sir Ronald Algie. The reports of the National Provident Fund, and Rural Banking and Finance Corporation, the Armed Forces Canteen Fund, and the Testing Laboratory Registration Council were tabled. Members gave notice of 10 notice of motion, and the Accident Compensation Amendment Bill was introduced and given a first reading. Ministers replied to 21 questions, and one urgent question. The Opposition failed in a bid to force a snap debate on its taxation proposals. The National Airways Corporation Dissolution Bill, the Transport Amendment Bill (No. 2), end the Register of Osteopaths Incorporated Bill were all given second readings. The House adjourned at 10.26 p.m.
