Question so resolved in the affirmative.

Mr Berry: I raise a point of order, Mr Speaker. During the lead-up to that vote and discussion of leave being granted to me to move a motion, Mr Kaine, referring to you, said, "So does the Speaker".

Mr Kaine: He should listen. That is what I said. I repeat it. He is the Speaker.

MR SPEAKER: Order!

Mr Berry: Mr Speaker, that implied that you were not paying attention to your duties, and I think Mr Kaine should be required to withdraw that.

MR SPEAKER: I will review Hansard and take an opinion on that, Mr Berry. I do not recall exactly what was said at the time. The question now is: That the motion moved by Mr Berry be agreed to.

Question resolved in the negative.
