Mr Deputy Speaker, I rise on a point of order: I want to ask you, Mr Deputy Speaker, if you would make a ruling as to the relevance of material that may be brought up in the consideration in detail stage. My understanding is that it must be relevant to the portfolio. This is Prime Minister and Cabinet, and the material that is being discussed by the honourable member would be dealt with in another portfolio. I simply put on the record that the Liberal Party is enormously concerned about pensions, but it is not relevant to this particular debate.
