The member for Melbourne Ports is being very presumptive. I ask members to listen to the whole response to the point of order. If the debate that was contained in the first part of the question was the only debate that was in the question, that would have been okay. My ruling is that the last two or three words of the question are out of order but the question stands up until that point. So the reference to a member of this place is ruled out of order but the question about an appointment remains.
