MR ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Order, members!

Mr Seselja: It’s not for you to tell us—

MR ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Order! The Leader of the Opposition will come to order.

Mr Corbell: What’s wrong with the nomination?

MR ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Order, members, please.

Mr Corbell: That’s the question, Zed. What’s deficient with the nomination?

Mr Seselja: What’s wrong with the other seven?

MR ASSISTANT SPEAKER: The Leader of the Opposition and the Attorney-General will come to order, please.

MR ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Mrs Dunne! Mrs Dunne, I have called the chamber to order. You are sitting there asking me to warn you. I will do it.
