The Leader of the House will need to resume his seat. Under the standing orders, as I said on Wednesday, I think, the matter needs to be put without debate and needs to be put immediately. The question is that the Deputy Prime Minister be no further heard.

Members will be familiar with the ruling I made on this matter last Wednesday. That matter now having been tested and negatived again, I make that same ruling again with respect to the rest of this week for questions asked of the Deputy Prime Minister.
