Mr Kaine: But has it been demonstrated?

MS ELLIS: Yes, it has, Mr Kaine.

Mr Kaine: It has not been demonstrated to me.

MADAM SPEAKER: Order!

MS ELLIS: I demonstrated in my speech earlier this morning that the comparative costs between refurbishment and building undeniably point to the cost-effectiveness of building the new project. For that reason, Madam Speaker, I am afraid that I do not agree to the second paragraph of the amendment; but I do agree to the first.

Ordered that the question be divided.

Amendment to paragraph (1) agreed to.

Question put:

MADAM SPEAKER: If there is confusion over the vote, we can vote again.

Mr Westende: Thank you very much.

Mr Wood: That is the way it was. It was clear. It was not retracted.

MADAM SPEAKER: He has disputed it. We have done this before. Mr Wood, we have allowed this before. I have ruled on this.
