The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:30): Supplementary arising from the answer, sir: do you consider that you're responsible to this chamber for the use of our parliamentary allowances?

The PRESIDENT (14:30): Do I consider I am responsible to the chamber? The Clerk will correct me if I'm wrong, but I assume that I am. Is that correct, Chris? Yes, the President is ultimately responsible.
