QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Well, that would be the case if everyone could say they objected to whatever someone's saying. So you will leave the chamber under standing order 94(a) for abuse of standing orders. You didn't state the point of order.

To simply say that the minister has done this numerous times is an abuse of the standing orders. Simply state the point of order on relevance, as the Manager of Opposition Business does, and then we will deal with it—do not say anything else. We're simply not going to have people taking points of order because they don't like what the minister is saying.

We cannot have that. No Speaker has tolerated that, and I won't either. The member for Lindsay then left the chamber.
