Ms Anna Burke (Chisholm, Deputy-Speaker) Share this | Hansard source

I thank the member for Page. I am well aware of her comments and I would reiterate them myself. But I also remind the member for Leichhardt that personal attacks are discouraged in this place. We might reflect on the Speaker’s comments of yesterday at question time, when he referred to the way we treat each other in this House. I think some derogatory comments from time to time in this place do not serve this parliament well; nor do they serve well the people who are making them from time to time.
