Madam Speaker, I have a question to you. There was an agreement that the House would continue with question time until 10 minutes past three. The Prime Minister has just called an end to question time prior to that. At what point, Madam Speaker, are we going to keep to the protocols of this House, which are meant to be the standards this government sets for the place and yet is not upholding itself?

The member for North Sydney will resume his seat. As I have explained before, the prerogative to finalise question time remains with the Prime Minister.
