Speaker’s Statements — David Garrett—Change of Parliamentary Membership

Under Standing Order 35(1)(c) I have been advised by the ACT Party that its parliamentary membership has changed, and that David Garrett is no longer a member of the ACT Party for parliamentary purposes. Accordingly, under Standing Order 34(4) David Garrett is from 17 September 2010 regarded as an Independent member for parliamentary purposes. Allocations of speaking slots and oral questions will be adjusted. Allocations of funding to the ACT Party and to David Garrett will also be adjusted.
