Matter of Public Interest: Day Light Savings
A fiery opening to the YMCA QYP parliamentary with a matter of public interest debate. The matter at hand was Day Light Savings and the Opposition's proposal to put in place Day Light Savings in the Southern half of Queensland. All members speaking in the debate delivered fantastic arguments, including the honorable member for Pumicestone, whose accusation that the Opposition simply wanted more time 'to go to the pub' had the chamber swell with jeers of both support and disdain.
At the end of the session, the no's had it with 42 to 27.
