The point of order is on relevance. The Attorney-General is insisting on using the word 'instruction' in order to avoid the question. The question was, 'At any point did the Attorney-General direct the Solicitor-General, whether personally or through his office or department, not to intervene on behalf of either the ATO or the Commonwealth?' It did not say 'instruct'; it asked about a direction from him.
