 The SPEAKER (17:26): Before calling the first adjournment matter, during last night’s adjournment debate, the members for Ringwood, Box Hill and Nepean raised matters for the Minister for Education, seeking action to do with funding shade sails for schools in their electorates. The Deputy Speaker indicated that she would review the second and third matters to ensure they did not infringe rulings from Speaker Delzoppo and others that prevent the same action being sought by different members. Having reviewed the transcript, the Deputy Speaker and I are satisfied that the matters comply with previous rulings in that, while they are on the same policy matter, the actions relate to funding different schools, clearly distinguishing them.
