House of RepresentativesWednesday 4 February 2026

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

I want to deal with this. The Treasurer is going to take a pause for a moment and resume his seat. We're simply not going to have a question time where everyone thinks it's a free-for-all and they can say whatever they like whenever they like.

That is not how this chamber will work. We talk about respect a lot, and that sort of behaviour is just—we're moving beyond that. The Deputy Leader of the Opposition will leave the chamber under 94(a).

The member for Fairfax then left the chamber.
