My apologies for not indicating earlier that I was going to ask an administrative question of you. I was caught by surprise by the Prime Minister calling the end of question time, but I do want to raise the point of how long a warning now stands for. In terms of Practice and standing orders, there is nothing that defines, to the best of my knowledge, how long a warning stands for. Previous speakers had determined a warning stands for the day. Now we are finding it is not only standing for the week but overriding from the previous week. I would seek, for the benefit of the House, a clarification of how long a warning lasts for.
