Flynn should not have been closed, and why it should be reopened. This is a government that clearly are not willing to do that. They fixed their decision either before or very soon after the election. But whenever they made the decision, they did not handle it in an honest way.

Debate (on motion by Mr Doszpot) adjourned to the next sitting.

Standing and temporary orders—suspension
