Mr Speaker, on a point of order: with due respect to you, we have on many occasions since this parliament began found a situation where you have acted within what is, I think, your understanding of the standing orders to say that when an untruth is remarked upon by the other side of the House, the remedy for that is for the leader to stand up at the end of question time and correct the record. But, as we know, that is not broadcast and this is. So the untruth remains on the public record.
