WORTLEY (14:53):</by>  Supplementary question to the assistant minister: is it normal for a minister or assistant minister to speak before the Labor opposition and then speak after the Labor opposition?

In the order of protocols, they invited me to speak first, before the Leader of the Opposition. I was not invited to speak again, and I didn't speak again for the second time. It was Councillor Simon Hou wanting to introduce the Lord Mayor and many councillors attending that day, and in his remarks he just wanted to pay a tribute to me. That was it. I didn't even speak at all the second time.</text>
