The member for Cook will resume his seat. Again, I would characterise the member for Cook's question as one that went beyond the question and had argument. If I were inclined I could have ruled that part out of order, but, as I have indicated, I allow those questions on the understanding that the questioner has to expect that it allows a wider-ranging response.
