Mr Acting Deputy Speaker, I draw your attention to standing order 90 which says:

All imputations with improper motives to a Member and all personal reflections on other Members shall be considered highly disorderly.

The honourable member is more than sailing than close to the wind. In my view, she has crossed the line in the imputations she is making about the member for Dobell. She needs to do it by substantive motion. I am not attacking her criticisms of the AEC. I do not agree with them. They are within order. But for the imputations she has just made in relation to the member for Dobell should be pulled to order and not allowed to continue.
