On the point of order, clearly the legislation proposed by the government has equal applicability and applies to all Australians equally. For the legal opinion that is being sought by the honourable member opposite, there can be no expectation that the Prime Minister can offer an opinion on a particular matter. Therefore, Mr Speaker, I think the point of order made by the honourable member opposite is in fact not in order and the Prime Minister is relevantly answering a wideranging question and he is completely in order.
