Please explain, Mr Downer.Andrew Peacock, press release k82, July 20, 1978, Lima Declaration, "the transfer is

Federal Government a mandate of ownership for housing, property, farms, and businesses
to government control once the Republic has been proclaimed."Kevin Rudd, when PM, called for an Asian Pacific Community by 2020.

Hi sternhell your local member should provide you with old Hansard material.Ed
The Kim Beasley quote-treachery on steroids. I have been looking through 1990 Hansards and I found that earlier Hansards from 1990 at the State Library in Sydney had disappeared! No reference on the Hansard web site, but I could not find any Beasley speeches (he was a prolific speaker) from the February to May part of 1990.
Hopefully our inside people in Canberra can go through Hansards for us or arrange for me to do the torturous research.It takes 30 minutes of heavy concentration with caffeine boost to skim through a Hansard volume. Quite mind- numbing. My brain and eyes can only handle 2 Hansards at a sitting.
If you think about it, if the Hansards had disappeared, anything parliament did in that period is invalid.
