Just before I call the member for Flynn—no, the member for Gorton does not have the call. The member for Watson knows that was a frivolous point of order. We have had a number of them creeping in. I need to say to members that, if there is a continuation of this, I will be very strongly minded to adopt a practice of former Speaker Harry Jenkins and other Speakers in the past who have made decisions on points of order very quickly or, in some instances—as you are devoted to the practice, as I know, Member for Watson—refused to hear points of order.
