Milton Dick (Speaker) Share this | Hansard source

The standing orders are pretty clear. I am going to rule that last part of the question out. Standing order 100(d)(iv) is clear that questions must not contain imputations. I take this opportunity to remind all members that this is a warning: other speakers in similar circumstances have ruled out the entire question when this starts creeping into the questions. It's a warning for every member that I will not tolerate imputations. At this instance, I am not prepared to rule the question out of order, but I will rule the last part out. If it continues and this trend emerges, just so everyone is clear, the question will just be ruled out and we'll move to the next question. I give the call to the Prime Minister.
