Is it appropriate that the member for Waite is present in the parliament today after his alleged incidents, including making sexist, racist and homophobic remarks towards other parliamentarians and parliamentary staff?</text>

As I have alluded to today and from my earlier statement to the media of 17 January, there is obviously a process underway and I don't really feel it is appropriate to add to that at this time.</text>
