Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the House) Share this | Hansard source

Mr Speaker, I raise a point of order. Certainly I was aware, both as Leader of the House and when I was Manager of Opposition Business, that when the Speaker requires a comment to be withdrawn it should be done unconditionally. That has not occurred. The Leader of the Opposition is required to stand at the dispatch box and simply say, ‘I withdraw.’
