Madam Speaker, I wish to raise an issue of some gravity in question time today. For the Dorothy Dix questions coming from the government, six came from Queensland MPs and none came from New South Wales MPs. For opposition questions, none came from Queensland MPs but two did come from New South Wales MPs. While I have previously objected to your role in attending party room meetings, I ask that you use it in future to rectify this anomaly.
