Standing order 94(a) applies! For the Leader of the House: I had called the Clerk for the next item of business but the member for Port Adelaide had been on his feet. I thought he had been on his feet in error ready to speak on the bill. I certainly take the point of the Leader of the House about similarity of language. But the only thing that has been moved on my left-hand side is an amendment, so I am going to allow the member for Port Adelaide to proceed. But I forewarn the House that, once a suspension of this nature has been moved and dealt with, it can't be repeated immediately. The member for Port Adelaide has the call.
