Order! The House will come to order—
Mrs Mirabella interjecting—
Mr Champion interjecting—
That includes the members for Indi and Wakefield. The House should tread carefully when there are other avenues that could be used if they wish to resolve this matter within the chamber. Carrying on a debate by interjection at question time is not the way which is appropriate. I think if you want to be actually true to the principles that are being exposed by the questioner and by the response then the other ways in which we deal with these could have been used by now.
