Mr Deputy Speaker, on a point of order: the member for Bass has done this now on a number of occasions. Standing order 66A says very clearly that the idea of this new standing order is that you stand up and ask whether an intervention is going to be taken by the Speaker and, if the speaker says yes, you get a chance to state your question. While I have been sitting in the chamber, on three occasions the member for Bass has abused standing order 66A. Either the Manager of Government Business has not given a lesson to these new members or they are wilfully ignoring it.
