I am not appreciating this one. I am on my feet. The standing orders and House of Representatives Practice are very clear. Whether we like it or not, it is the word 'lie' that the parliament has over the years objected to, not the variations on it. I understand the point that the member for Wentworth is making, but, if you go to House of Representatives Practice, it is the word 'lie' that cannot be stated. The minister has the call.
