Ian Causley (Page, Deputy-Speaker) Share this | Hansard source

The request for withdrawal has been made. The minister previously said that, if there was an imputation that was unparliamentary, he would withdraw. It would assist the business of the House if the minister withdrew any imputation that he made, without qualification. I do not have in my mind the specifics of that imputation because I was distracted at the time, and I apologise. But it would assist the business of the House, and it would be easier than going back to the Hansard and having this matter repeated later in the day, which would inevitably be done if the minister does not withdraw.
