Order! Order! While it is not a point of order, I indicated that individual members, even when they are interjecting, should be very careful about the statements that they make and they have to stand by those statements. But on this occasion, as the person that has been mentioned is not covered by the standing orders, there is no action that I can contemplate and will take. The reason for me inviting the Treasurer to pause was that the level of interjection was not, by any standards, ‘robust’ or in any way respectful. I think that members should really just think about the way in which we engage with each other in this place. I am happy to have the contest of ideas; I am not happy to have the contest of personalities. The Treasurer.
