Mr Chairman, I rise on a point of order. Under standing order 116 this is a time to ask questions of the minister. This senator has spoken several times and never asked a question. She and her colleagues have guillotined debate on this issue and prevented the opposition from having a proper opportunity to discuss it. Mr Chairman, I suggest that you draw her attention to the standing orders and require her to ask a question, if she has one, or sit her down so that those who do have questions can ask them of the minister.
