Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 12:30 :28 ): I rise to also speak in favour of the Housing Improvement Bill 2015. As the member for Schubert has pointed out, we on this side of the chamber believe that the bill should be supported, whilst being slightly amended.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 15:44 :23 ): Obviously, this bill has attracted extraordinary criticism from many stakeholders, including the owners and operators of tattoo parlours, as well as the Law Society of SA, the peak body that represents the legal fraternity in this state.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 15:55 :25 ): Today I rise to speak about the life of Clarence Charles (Clarrie) Pollard, who passed away recently. He was very much a statesman and a community legend of our local area.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 15:14 :52 ): I wish to speak of three organisations today.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 17:35 :09 ): Today, I would like to speak about East Marden Primary School. I also attended an absolutely extraordinary sports day recently at East Marden Primary School in Campbelltown. 

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 17:19 :04 ): I also rise today to support the Firearms Bill 2015. I learnt a lot during the consultation phase of this bill. I learnt that a lot of my constituents—many more than I thought—do have firearms, and it was good to see so much interest in the bill by local constituents.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 16:47 :36 ): I will do my best to follow up on that—

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: I won't stop anyone speaking over the top of you.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 17:44 :18 ): As tempting as it is to rebut the member for Waite, I would like to quote Bon Jovi:

We've gotta hold on ready or not. You live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 15:38 :55 ): It is said that there are no bad people, only bad incentives. Time will tell whether this bill provides a good incentive or a bad incentive.

Mr TARZIA ( Hartley ) ( 16:35 :43 ): I today rise to support the member for Hammond in his endeavour to put forward the Statutes Amendments (Rights of Foster Parents and Guardians) Bill.
