ASSEMBLY, LEGISLATIVE (See also "Parliament"):

ACTING SPEAKERS (J. A. CLOUGH, Esq., J. C. BRUXNER, Esq., and D. J. MAHONEY, Esq.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS:

Chair: A member should respect the fact that Mr Acting Speaker, because of his temporary occupancy of the Chair, had given him all possible leniency, 604 (Mr Bruxner).

Interjections and Interruptions: Disorderly, 419 (Mr Clough). If a member disregards interjections and addresses the Chair, he will not fall foul of it, 604 (Mr Bruxner).

Member Warned: Mr Sloss, 423 (Mr Clough).

Points of Order: No point of order was involved, 99, 101 (Mr Mahoney), 419 (Mr Clough).

A'CTING SPEAKERS (J. A. CLOUGH, Esq., J. c. BRUXNER, Esq., and D. J. MAHoNEY, Esq.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (continued):

Clough). In consideration of the Legislative Council's amendments to a bill a member must confine his remarks to the clauses amended, 643 (Mr Bruxner).

A member must confine himself to the matters contained in the bill, 602, 603, 604. On a measure providing for the making of regulations for forfeiture of remissions of sentence to prisoners, a member may give reasons why he thinks the bill should be enlarged, but he may not range over the whole of the prison system, 603 (Mr Bruxner).

CHAIRMAN OF COMMITI'EES (L. A. PUNCH, Esq.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS, AND AN OBSERVATION BY THE TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN OF CoMMITTEES (J. A. CLouGH, Esq.): Chair: A member was deliberately can

vassing the Chairman's ruling, 253. Interjections and Interruptions: There was

too much audible conversation in the Chamber, 256, 627, 736 (by Mr Clough). Interjections are disorderly and they should be ignored by the member speaking, 408; who should be heard in silence, 410.

Member Warned: Mr Bannon, 410. Of}ensive and Objectionable Remarks, Im

putations, and Aspersions: When a remark to which objection has been taken has been withdrawn, that is an end to it, 269.

The following expressions were with· drawn: "It is well known in legal circles that some of these senior men have been approached by the Attorney-General and have not been prepared to accept (a judicial appointment)", 262; ("The former Mmister) extracted, and I suggest by coercion, an agreement from two Americans", 410; "Political pressure was applied to the Deputy Premier of the Labor Government in 1963", 410.

Points of Order: A member must confine himself to the point of order, 407, 408.

Procedure: A member who failed to seek the call to move a projected amendment to a clause which had been agreed to, could move for the recommittal of the bill at the adoption of report stage, 260. No point of order was involved in an allegation that the Chairman was conversing with the Minister and appeared to be taking instructions from him, as this was not so, 409.

Relevance: A member must confine himself to the clause before the Committee, 251, 253, 259, 407, 408, 409. In Committee a member may not discuss or rebut argu-

ments raised in the second-reading debate or in the Minister's reply thereto, 407; though considerable tolerance is allowed and it is hard to define what is related only to a clause and what is part of the bill as a whole, 409.

SPEAKER, MR (THE HoN. KEVIN ELLIS, LL.B., B.Ec.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS:

Adjournment: A matter may not be debated on the adjournment, 185, 271.

Chair: A member should address the Chair, 228, 374, 632. He may not seek to subvert a ruling of the Chair, 72. Mr Speaker did not want to cross-examine a member or to involve the Chair in ·the debate any further than was necessary to see that it was conducted in the proper manner, 381. It was a reflection on the Chair and a gross overstatement to say that the Chair was

ASSEMBLY, LEGISLATIVE (continued):

SPEAKER, MR (THE HoN. KEVIN ELLIS, LL.B., B.Ec.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (continued):

interrupting a member when Mr Speaker was merely doing what he could to assist him, 382.

Dissent: Dissent may not be moved immediately after a ruling from the Chair, 471.

Divisions: If the Opposition were concerned whether the bells had been heard, the division would be called off and the bells rung again, 61. The bells not ringing properly, the division was called off. The bells were rung again, 803. It is disorderly to change places during a division, 802. Putting the question in Standing Order 208 (b) means when Mr Speaker calls the tellers, 802.

Documents: A member may not quote from a document unless it is relevant to the debate. To say that its author is a trustee is not sufficient. To make it relevant the member must say for whom he is trustee, 381, 383, but the Chair is put in an impossible position if the member says the man is a trustee for the Crown and the Minister denies it, 382. A document must be identified so that the Chair can rule whether it is permissible to quote from it, 383, 384, 788.

A member who appeared to be quoting from confidential committee documents issued to aldermen of a council must accept responsibility for his own conduct, and it is not for the Chair to say whether it is right or wrong, 745.

Election as Speaker: 13, 17, 20, 21, 28. Interjections and Interruptions: Dis

orderly, 198, 240, 381, 745. A member must be heard in silence, 55, 428, 466, 786, 789. If a member wishes to make a point of order, there is a way in which to do so, 789. A member who had a fairly good run during his speech should refrain from further interjections, 394, 403.

Legislative Council: Election: Procedure in marking of ballot papers; and assistance to members in voting, 809.

Members Warned: Mr Bannon, 71, 465, 472; Mr Hifls, 382; Mr Jackson, 272; Mr Mead, 744; Mr Sloss, 426.

Ministerial Statement: Mr Speaker declined to rule that a Minister's reply to a question without notice was a ministerial statement, 198.

Offensive and Objectionable Remarks, Imputations and Aspersions: A member should refrain from personal attacks on a Minister, 228; be may not accuse the Minister or any other member of lying, 376,


SPEAKER, MR (THE HoN. KEVIN ELLIS, LL.B., B.Ec.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (continued):

392; and he should not say that the Minister has a vested interest in not being able to find the files, 376. A member may take exception to a statement only on the ground that it casts a reflection on him, 790; but if another member denies making the remark he cannot be pressed to withdraw it, 377.

It is not a proper statement to say that the Premier in a prepared statement set out to rubbish the reputation of members of this Parliament, 467; and a member should not use the expression "a deal" in speaking of an arrangement between the Minister and insurance companies, 630. Except to the extent that on two or three occasions the Chair had asked a member to withdraw statements that he had made, he had not violated any of the forms or practices of the House, 794.

The following expressions were withdrawn: "I do not know what the deal was about the swimming pool, but he (the Minister) was able to bring his ministerial position to bear and to get just what he wanted", 86; ''The Leader of the Opposition, having presumably taken with him the files in this matter", 209'; "That is a statement equally as lying as some of the others that have been made by the Leader of the Opposition", 392; "And you will be in gaol", 469; The statement that the action of a Minister "is a shabby trick on 70,000 people", 629; "The AttorneyGeneral decided this as member for Lane Cove and not as Attorney-General", 792; "This business was fabricated by the Premier", 794.

Personal Explanat1'ons: A personal explanation may not be debated, 466, 468, 469. A member must quickly indicate in what way his character, or his political or other integrity, has been maligned, and then proceed to explain himself, 467, 468. The member had gone as far as he could in a personal explanation and there were other forms available to him if he thought the matter needed debating, 469.

Mr Speaker intervened to put ·the question after a member had made his point quite clearly on a personal explanation, 244; and a member was asked to defer his personal explanation until Ministers had tabled papers, 474.

Points of Order: No point of order was involved, 55, 56, 71, 432, 745. It had no substance, 198. No point of order is involved if a Minister explains that a member has made mis-statements, as that is a matter of debate, 629. A point of order may be taken on a personal explanation, 466; but

ASSEMBLY, LEGISLATIVE: SPEAKER, MR (THE HoN. KEVIN ELLis, ll.B.,

B.Ec.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (continued):

a member had not been allowed to proceed far enough for the Chair to be able to decide the point raised against him, 474.

Press: A member asking a question about a public statement did not make any reference to a newspaper report and was not called upon to vouch for the accuracy of the statement, 199.

Privilege: Standing Order 158 allows a member to raise a matter of privilege suddenly arising. A member desiring to seek leave to table a report on the dairy industry must do so by notice of motion, as any principle involved did not appear to have suddenly arisen, 590.

Procedure: The member, in quoting from an unidentified document, appeared to be carrying on debate as a proxy for the author, and at that stage it appeared that he was out of order, 381. Any misleading statement by a member can be cleared up by the Minister in his . reply, 432. Under Standing Order 278 it is for the Chair to decide whether it is a matter of urgency that a bill be read a third time immediately following adoption of the Committee's report, 413.

Public Accounts Committee: Nomination of Mr Bowen, Mr Clough, Mr Einfield, Mr O'Keefe and Mr Ruddock, 590.

Questions without Notice: A question must relate to the administration of the Minister, 31, 369, 471; and may not seek an opinion, 471. A question seeking information which the Minister could not be expected to carry in his head was directed to be placed on the Questions and Answers paper, 197. Ministers' replies should not be lengthy, 139; and a Minister was asked whether he could reply within the time permissible, 365, 707.

A question to the terms of which the Minister had objected should be reframed and the Chair would give the member the call later, if possible, 197. A question with objectionable aspects was ruled out of order after Mr Speaker withdrew his indulgence to allow part of it, 471. A question containing colourful language was out of order, and the member could not question the Chair's disallowance of it, 711.

Relevance: A member must confine his remarks to the motion before the Chair, 59, 72; or to the bill under consideration, 742: or to the point of order, 467. Discussion of the Select Committee on Drought is not relevant in debate on the election of a Chairman of Committees, 23. On a motion for leave to introduce a bill, a member may


SPEAKER, MR (Tim HoN. KEVIN ELLIS, ll.B., B.Ec.), RULINGS, OBSERVATIONS AND OPINIONS (continued):

briefly indicate other matters on the business paper which, in his opinion, should come on first, 72. A Minister, in his secondreading speech, may not deal with a subject outside the objects of the bill, 153. At the second-reading stage it is irrelevant to discuss projected amendments to a bill, 433. On a measure to extend the period of office of aldermen and shire councillors, brief references may be made to why there ought to be an earlier election, 741; but a member cannot go into the details of administration or maladministration of a council, 743, 744, 745.

Sub Judice: On a point of order that a matter was sub judice the Minister, upon request, informed the Chair that he did not know whether an appeal had been lodged, 273.

Tabling of Papers: Documents on the Warringah Shire Council made available, after tabling, for inspection and perusal by all members in the room of the Clerk of Papers, would be under Mr Speaker's control and available at his discretion, 29. A member having been allowed to quote from a document at great length, was asked to lay it on the table so that it would be available to all members, 389, 390, 774, 777.

Temporary Chairmen of Committees: Nomination of Mr Clough, Mr Darby, Mr Bruxner, Mr Mahoney and Mr Southee, 57.

Urgency: A member must confine his remarks to urgency, 54, 202, 203. An urgency motion by a member seeking to move a substantive motion proposing the tabling of papers dealing with the withdrawal of a summons was out of order under Standing Order 55, which requires that the production of accounts or papers having reference to the administration of justice shall be asked for only by address to the Governor, 709.
