Mr VENNING (Schubert) (11:59): I certainly support the first two paragraphs of this motion moved by the member for Fisher. The confusing range of speed limits in South Australia has been the subject of many debates in this house, Madam, as you would be aware. I moved a motion in early 2009 calling ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (11:21): I rise very briefly to speak on this subject, which I have a fair bit of passion about. I indicate that I support the motion, and I also congratulate you, Mr Acting Speaker, for introducing it. I think this motion is correcting an oversight. I think it is quite wrong ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (12:50): You amaze me, Madam Speaker. Your perception, again, is impeccable. This issue has been raised over many years. This is not a new concept. In fact, it was first raised with me when I was a member here in 1995-96 by a person under the name of Mr Ron Bannon—no ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (16:22): How much time will I get? Free time. Here we go. Madam Deputy Speaker, I rise to—
An honourable member interjecting:
Mr VENNING: Twenty? That is good. I will need all that. I rise briefly to speak on this bill—
The Hon. M.J. Atkinson: To get even one idea ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (15:40): Today I would like to talk about an issue that affects everyone, and that is a favourite subject of mine, food security. We have always had the ability in Australia to be self-sufficient in growing and producing our own food, but more and more we are seeing a growing ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (12:04): I want to add to the comments made by the member for Bragg, who is leading the opposition on this bill. My history in relation to the issue of drug use is well documented in this place. I have always been opposed to drugs, particularly in regard to drug driving. I ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (16:21): Yet again, the member for Goyder got it right and, yes, I certainly would appreciate having an input into this. Anything to do with railways, in all of my time here, has certainly attracted my attention, because I am a very avid supporter of rail. It is certainly sad ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (11:18): I acknowledge the member for Light, who just sat down. I will not name the family involved, but this family first came to me in relation to this problem. Being a farmer myself I will declare my interest, because I do have a strong personal interest in this matter. I ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (16:48): I will use the 10 minutes I have in the adjournment debate to fill out the government's time to say that it is short-changing the people of South Australia. I rise to speak about a very serious issue: the speed limit of 100 kilometres past St Jakobi Lyndoch Lutheran ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (12:59): I seek leave to move Notice of Motion, Private Members Business, Other Motions No. 2 in an amended form.
Leave granted.
Mr VENNING: I move:
That this house—
(a)notes with concern, the continuing road toll in South Australia and urges a full investigation into ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (17:14): I will not speak at length, but I just want to say a few words in relation to what happened at the 2010 election.
The DEPUTY SPEAKER: No, take your time, member for Schubert.
Mr VENNING: I have been around for 20 years and I have seen some skulduggery.
The DEPUTY ...
Mr VENNING (Schubert) (11:20): I move:
That this house—
(a)congratulates the Liberal opposition on its long-term support of country health, and in particular a new Barossa hospital; and
(b)condemns the Rann Labor Government for its continued failure to address the issue of equity in the ...
