Mr Deputy Speaker, I rise on a point of order. Under standing order 76 a member must speak only on the subject matter of a question under discussion, and there are a number of exceptions that do not apply here. This debate is about the Tax Laws Amendment (Luxury Car Tax) Bill and the luxury car tax imposition, general, customs and excise bills, and the issue of past policy discussions within the former government and the attitude of the member for Higgins are hardly relevant to this debate. If the member has not got enough material to sustain a debate on luxury car taxes he should not enter into the debate, and I would ask you to draw him back to the subject.
