I am sure the other House and the Government will stand firm and stand up to these threats from the tobacco company.

Senators Leyden and Brennan referred to the question of reducing the speed limit in housing estates. Everybody agrees that something will have to be done. Perhaps the best course of action involves putting up signs stating that the speed limit is 20 km/h, installing speed ramps or including speed ramps in the planning conditions for all estates. Such issues will have to be considered. We all agree that it is a question of what we can do and how it can be enforced. Something will certainly have to be done in this regard.
