Senators,

After consultation with the Premier, we will be introducing a Question Period to the Senate. This will occur on Fridays, and depending on the level of activity expanded to two days a week.

During Question Period members of the Official Opposition (the PDA) will have to opportunity to ask questions of the government and hold it to account. They may direct their question to the Premier or any Minister. OPA Senators who are not Ministers may also ask questions.

The PDA is encouraged to appoint one of their members as Leader of the Official Opposition.

Additionally, seeing as two opposition Senators may only have a limited number of questions, members of the region will be encouraged to send questions to these members, who may then present them. We may also consider opening a topic in the Public Gallery for questions from which the Speaker or PDA Senators may draw.

Keep in mind this will be a trial and error process for a while, as we work out the procedure.

Yours,
E.
