Madam SPEAKER Link to this

I regret to inform the House of the death on 8 June 2007 of the Hon Phillip Albert Amos QSO, who represented the electorate of Manurewa from 1963 to 1975. He was Minister of Education from 1972 to 1975 and Minister of Island Affairs from 1972 to 1974. I desire, on behalf of this House, to express our sense of the loss we have sustained and our sympathy with the relatives of the late former member. I now ask members to stand with me and observe a period of silence as a mark of respect for his memory.
