Point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. You have asked for interjections to cease. Despite asking for interjections to cease from—he is not the Manager of Opposition Business, he just acts like he is—the member for Grayndler. He continued to interject right through the minister's answer. If he thinks there is a special rule for him, that is fine, but I would ask you to enforce the standing orders. Otherwise, if the rule is your rulings on interjections are to be ignored, this side of the House will reciprocate when they are asking questions and making speeches. I prefer not to. I would prefer that your rulings were upheld.
