Mr Tony Burke (Watson, Australian Labor Party, Manager of Opposition Business (House)) Share this | Hansard source

Mr Speaker, I have a question to you, arising from the answer given by the member for Dawson. The member for Dawson has advised the House that there is a parliamentary committee that no longer meets. I am asking whether that advice has been given to you as Speaker, and whether as chair of the committee he is continuing to receive a monetary allowance, having declared that the committee no longer meets.
