Mr Hanson: I am indeed, Madam Assistant Speaker.

Members interjecting—

MADAM ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Members, please be quiet.

Mr Hanson: Those opposite seem very keen to have me back here, Madam Assistant Speaker. I am glad that I can bring joy to their otherwise dull little lives.

MADAM ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Members, I cannot hear Mr Hanson.

MR HANSON: Madam Assistant Speaker, given the events of today, I wonder if you could apply the same consistency to Mr Stanhope’s continual sniping and abuse of Mr Smyth as you would apply to those sitting on my side. If you could deal with it with a degree of consistency, it would be appreciated.

MADAM ASSISTANT SPEAKER: Thank you, Mr Hanson. Mr Smyth, you have the floor.
