I raise a point of order, Madam Speaker. I did not want to interrupt my colleague Dr Blue’s question. When Minister Harry Duynhoven sought leave to table a document, there was objection to it being tabled from the member Dr Cullen. He is pointing to Minister Mallard. In fact, the Minister Harry Duynhoven did table a document. There was objection, and it should not have been tabled.

Can I please make it clear that I did withdraw my objection.

WilsonMadam SPEAKER Link to this

I was not sure whether there was an objection, which is why I asked whether there was. Frequently, there are murmurings around and people do, in fact, when it is repeated, either object clearly or do not.

I raise a point of order, Madam Speaker. The point of order is that, as Speaker, you did not put the question again as to whether there was any objection.

Well, we did not hear it over here. It was very clear on this side of the House that there was objection from the Minister, and that was not clarified from our point of view.

I apologise. I will speak louder next time.
