Order! As the Deputy Speaker announced yesterday in the House, it is proposed to commence a trial of captioning in the Federation Chamber. Two screens located on the advisers desks on each side of the floor of the Federation Chamber will have captions showing the item of business currently before the Federation Chamber. The Deputy Speaker and I would appreciate feedback from members on whether they find the captioning useful. A more suitable long-term location will be found for the screens if members find the captioning helpful.
