Mr Speaker, I rise on a point of order. The substance of the question was a question. The line that the shadow minister then used to describe his question, which is the last part of the question, was clearly out of order. If the shadow minister insists that that is the question then he is actually ruling his own question out of order.

You had a bad day yesterday. You lost four questions yesterday. You're going to have another bad day today. But, if you want a genuine answer to the substance of the question, the minister is prepared to answer it.
