Joe O'Toole (Independent)

I think you started the clock when Senator Fitzgerald was supposed to finish, rather than when he did finish. That is the problem.

There is not a great deal of difference between either side of the House on what is being sought in this legislation. The only difference that has emerged is on the question of resources. Senator Fitzgerald is confident they will be made available. Senator Ulick Burke doubts that and I am also sceptical about it.
