Order! The member for North Sydney will resume his seat. It is a very bold statement to say that I was very pleased with the tranquillity of question time, so much so that, by the time we got to about the 21st question, I could not actually remember what it was to give a ruling on whether the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry was anywhere near his question. Having said that, I do not think that we should review what occurred around about lunchtime today. I think that we learn lessons from it. As I said, the main thing for me is that I have faith in the actions that the occupant of the chair took. I think that we should just move on with the business of the House.
