Mr Chester interjecting—

Order! The member for Gippsland has asked the question.

Mr Abbott interjecting—

Order! The Leader of the Opposition!

The parliamentary secretary is warned! The ministers that complain—especially those who have had leadership status—actually know that from time to time leaders are given a bit of rope. I have indicated that that bit of rope has not much left to it today. The Leader of the House is standing patiently. He now has the call.
