Mr Speaker, my question to you relates to the appropriate use of iPads in this chamber. I should say that I have no objection with iPads being available in this chamber—they assist members in fulfilling their various duties as elected members. However, this morning when the Prime Minister was making a statement on the Closing The Gap report I was in the gallery with one of my schools. The school students asked me why a member was playing solitaire on their iPad in the chamber. I believe that type of contact and use of iPads is disorderly in this chamber.
