A bit too excited about the budget
Mr T.R. BUSWELL: I think something has happened to me since I became a member, because when I go to bed I now read such things as this consolidated financial statement. I ask that the Treasurer put his photograph on the inside of the cover as a memento.
An opposition member: Something for you to read before you go to sleep.
Mr T.R. BUSWELL: Perish the thought.
Mr E.S. Ripper: I do not like the idea of you looking at my photograph when you are in bed.
Mr T.R. BUSWELL: I may already be doing so! If I have seen a woman’s face in ink spots, I can see the Treasurer’s face on the flyleaf. Who knows what could be happening in my mind since I came into this place?
Mr R.C. Kucera: No wonder he has a blue hand!
