Honourable Members:
David Hawker Speaker
Order! The Leader of the Opposition was heard in silence. I call the Prime Minister, and he will be heard.
John Howard Bennelong, Liberal Party, Prime Minister
Mr Speaker, if that is the mood of the Leader of the Opposition, which, in a democratic parliament he is entitled to have and entitled to express, I invite him to move a censure, and we will take it.
