Obituaries β Maurice Gee
π
Recorded under the Tuesday, 24 June 2025 session -
Hansard's own transcript for this session runs through to
Wednesday, 25 June 2025, so this debate may
really have happened on a later date within that range rather than on
24 June itself - we can't tell which
exact date from Hansard's own record of it.
π Hansard marked this day's transcript "Corrected" (not yet "Final") as of our last import -
it may since have changed again. Check the
official transcript
if anything here looks off.
