Harry Jenkins (Speaker) Share this | Hansard source

The Manager of Opposition Business is trying to make an analogy out something that I do not see. In fact, I was quite happy that we saved some time in the incident that he raises. If he wants me to delay the proceedings of the House by interrupting answers that are about to be concluded I do not think that that really assists the House, because it does lead to frustration. I make the observation, as I have in the past, that not necessarily should I give tutes on the way in which people should conduct themselves. But I would note the observation that every action seems to have a reaction in this House and I think that we should avoid that.
