I don't need to hear a point of order. Look, I've said twice now to the Deputy Prime Minister: he needs to confine himself to the policy topic. If he's talking about infrastructure, I'm being very generous in allowing that policy topic to be confined to the electorate. It was a very specific question. I'm out of patience on it. He can do what he did in the first couple of answers where I defended his right to do it. If he's going to stray and ask for extra leeway, what he's asking for is for me to ignore the practice, and I'm not going to do that. The Deputy Prime Minister has the call.
