Business of the House
Next week in the House priority will be given to the first reading of the Communications Legislation Bill, and the remaining stages of the Parental Leave and Employment Protection (Paid Parental Leave for Self-Employed Persons) Amendment Bill, the Criminal Procedure Bill, the Coroners Bill, the Historic Places Amendment Bill, the Protected Objects Amendment Bill, and the Education Amendment Bill.
I wonder whether the Deputy Leader of the House could indicate to us—noting the long list of work that the House appears to have before it—whether, following the staggering success of the Telecom leak, the Government is simply going to post the Budget on the Internet, to save the House spending a lot of time considering it.
I deem it highly unlikely.
