Statements on Indulgence: Valedictories (24 Nov 2011)

“I will be brief as much already has been said in these valedictories which I agree with—not everything, but I certainly agree with much of it and do not wish to repeat it. I would like to send best wishes to the former Speaker, the member for Scullin, Harry Jenkins. I did not really get the opportunity in the tumult of the earlier debate to put on the record my very genuine affection...”

Personal Explanations: (24 Nov 2011)

“Mr Speaker, I have a point of order to you. As the new Speaker, I seek guidance from you as to whether you will be allowing the Leader of the House to simply approach the dispatch box and start bellowing across the chamber at the opposition without properly seeking the call and being given it.”

Motions: Prime Minister; Censure (24 Nov 2011)

“Mr Speaker, I rise on a point of order: it is quite frankly beyond the pale for the Prime Minister to claim falsehoods in this speech. She should at least attempt to explain why standing orders should not be suspended so that she can be censured.”
