A member of the Legislative Council whose term is coming to an end has not ruled out a return to politics.
Dudley Butt has been an MLC for the last ten years, but recently confirmed he would not be seeking re-election to LegCo next month.
He was live on Mandate this morning to give his thoughts on the latest attempt to popularly elect MLCs.
Mr Butt told James Davis he may yet return, even though he hasn't been enjoying his work as much recently:
