Mr Speaker, on a point of order, suspensions of standing orders can be moved between two items of business. You called the Clerk, quite correctly, for the first item of business. The member for Grayndler then indicated he was making a point of order, which you generously allowed him to move. He then abused your generosity, and therefore I would suggest that the correct call that you originally made was for the Clerk to call the first item of business. When that is completed, the member for Grayndler, between that and the next item of business, if he chooses to do so, can take the action that he has indicated he wishes to take.
