I take a point of order, Mr Temporary Chairman, under the provision of the standing orders about reflections upon members of other chambers in this parliament. This minister is quite incapable of speaking for 10 words without going back to his bullyboy union tactics. The point of order is that he is reflecting on another member by saying that he is here bullying or standing over people. Not only is it untrue, it is a reflection on another member of the parliament. I would ask you to ask the minister to withdraw and apologise.
