House debates Questions without Notice

Mrs Bronwyn Bishop Mackellar, Liberal Party

Mr Speaker, on a point of order: standing order 98(c), which you upheld previously, says quite clearly:

A Minister can only be questioned on the following matters, for which he or she is responsible or officially connected:

(i) public affairs;

(ii) administration; or

(iii) proceedings pending in the House.

None of those things relates to the nature of the question being asked by the Leader of the Opposition. He is out of order.
