Question put:

That the amendment (Mr Humphries's) be agreed to.

A vote of the Assembly having been called for -

Mr Kaine: Let us see who is really serious about running this place in an orderly fashion and having some regard for the standing orders.

Mr Lamont: Madam Speaker, I rise to draw your attention - - -

MADAM SPEAKER: I normally do not take a point of order while the bells are ringing.

Mr Lamont: But I am doing so, Madam Speaker, to draw your attention to the reflection on the Chair made by Mr Kaine during this process. That is outrageous. It is absolutely outrageous.

MADAM SPEAKER: I will deal with that point of order after we have taken the vote.

MADAM SPEAKER: On Mr Lamont's point of order: Mr Kaine, I take it that you were referring to the house and not me?

Mr Kaine: Madam Chair, I was reflecting on the members opposite. I confirm that, with that qualification.

MADAM SPEAKER: They may choose to take a further point of order.

Motion agreed to, Mr Stevenson dissenting.
