Mr REITH (Leader of the House) (9:21 PM) —Mr Deputy Speaker, I seek your indulgence to make a statement about the sitting arrangements.

Mr DEPUTY SPEAKER (Mr Nehl)— The Leader of the House may proceed.

Mr REITH —I advise members of the House that I am advised that the Senate has dealt with the Interactive Gambling Bill 2001 but it will take in the order of 1½ hours to complete the paperwork for its transmission across to the House. There is other business to be attended to by the House of Representatives tonight. We are expecting a message on child support, I am advised. I also understand that the Senate has not yet dealt with the Parliamentary Contributory Superannuation Amendment Bill 2001 and until it has been dealt with we do not know whether there will be any requirement for it to come here. There is apparently an outstanding budget measure in respect of passenger movement charges. There is also some legislation about medical practitioners that might come back to the House with amendment. All of that suggests that we will be here certainly well past 12 o'clock. It also means that the House will have quite a bit of business to transact during the evening. Until we have a better measure of that, we intend to just keep on with the legislation currently before the House. I am mindful of the intent to have an extended adjournment debate, provided we have done all our other jobs. That is the state of the House, and I will keep members advised.
