The member for Lyons will leave under standing order 94(a), as will the member for Corangamite.

The member for Lyons then left the chamber.

The member for Corangamite then left the chamber.

Manager of Opposition Business, as strong language as it was, because of the nature of it I was listening very carefully and what I have to say is that, whilst that was very strong language—and I know the Manager of Opposition Business has asked for that to be withdrawn—I can't think of an example where an accusation like that, as strong as it was, has been withdrawn. I can't. But I'm happy to hear from the Manager of Opposition Business.
