Pairing Arrangements

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:24): On a point of order, Mr President, under standing order 204 you were meant to rule on my dissent from your ruling at the time that it was made, not at the next sitting week, so I ask that you rule on whether or not I have a supplementary.

The PRESIDENT: I will allow the supplementary question, the Hon. Ms Franks. If you could repeat it, please.

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS: I will repeat it: could the Leader of the Opposition clarify whether she believes votes of this place are a private or a public matter?

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (15:25): Pairing arrangements are a matter between individuals on a conscience matter.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!
