Minister for Transport Infrastructure

Absence

Jacinta ALLAN (Bendigo East – Premier) (14:02): I wish to advise that for the purposes of question time today I will answer questions for the portfolios of transport infrastructure, and public and active transport.

Brad Rowswell: On a point of order, Speaker, yesterday during question time there were a number of points of order raised by the Leader of the Opposition and opposition members which I could not actually hear the contents of, because of the wall of noise that the Leader of the Opposition and other opposition members were being exposed to at the time. My understanding of the standing orders is that every member of this place deserves respect and to be heard in silence.

Members interjecting.

The SPEAKER: Order! Members will come to order. Your point of order is, member for Sandringham?

Brad Rowswell: I simply make the request that during today’s question time your attention could be drawn to this matter.

The SPEAKER: Can I remind members, as I did yesterday, that respect goes a long way in this chamber – from both sides of the chamber – and disrespect will not be tolerated. There will be sanctions placed on members who do not respect the standing orders.
