The question is that the bill now be read a third time.

A division having been called and the bells having been rung—

The member for Fisher on a point of order?

I just note that there was no leave sought from the House.

Milton Dick Speaker

I remind the member of the new standing order 85, under which leave is not required.

I appreciate that, Speaker. I refer you to standing order 155(a). If I can, I will also refer the Speaker to the amendments for proceedings on urgent bills—standing order 85(c)(iv):

any further questions necessary to complete the remaining stages of the bill to be put without delay.

Does that negate the requirement for leave to be sought? I'm just seeking clarification, that's all.
